Update ... It's finally filling out:

It looks so good! Nice growing:)

Thanks, Kara. I wanted to share this save because too many people told me the bare stump couldn't be rerooted. Now it just needs to fatten up so we've recouped the original aloe.

I'm wondering if I should separate the rosettes or leave it alone until it NEEDS repotting. The poor thing has been through so much. I don't want to stress it, especially not at root level.

Suggestions? It gets full sun and rain. That's it. Should I feed it? What NPK and how often?

Thank you,

Maria Elena

Leave it alone (that is, the two main heads) - they'd be difficult to separate without massive wounding to the 'head' of the plant. You'll have additional offsets soon enough on that A. vera that the original plant can be as it is. It can benefit from a 1/4 ratio of general (15-15-15) fertilizer. It shouldn't be long before it flowers, too.

Yes, I agree with Cactusmcharris leave your Aloe alone. A little fertilizer would be nice too:).

Gracias!

Fertilize weekly, weakly then? Like my adeniums?

All my other C&S get high "P" tomato food once a month. They seem fine with that. Hoping to see more of this soon:

PS: That's a Gymnocalycium

Weekly is too much. Monthly's fine, but it depends on whether you want regular or over-done growth.

Got it ... Weak solution monthly! Thanks.
