For optimal growth, aloe vera should be planted in well-draining, neutral soil. A good mix consists of 4 parts garden soil, 4 parts compost, and 2 parts sand or wood chips. Alternatively, you can use dried river mud that has been ground up, mixed with pig manure for fermentation, and then combined with some sand or wood chips once it has decomposed.
Aloe vera is a drought-tolerant plant, so it's important to avoid overwatering. In summer, when temperatures are high and evaporation is rapid, water every 2-3 days. You can also mist the leaves in the morning and evening to maintain humidity. During spring and autumn, keep the soil slightly dry and limit watering. In winter, reduce watering even further—once a month is usually sufficient.
Aloe vera thrives in warm and sunny conditions, but it should be protected from direct sunlight during the hottest part of the day. It can also tolerate partial shade and does well in a well-ventilated, semi-shaded area. In late autumn, bring the plant indoors and ensure it still receives enough light. During winter and early spring, protect it from cold temperatures. If the temperature drops below 5°C, cover the plant with a transparent plastic bag to keep it warm, but make sure to ventilate regularly to avoid moisture buildup and promote healthy growth.
Fertilizing aloe vera is essential during its growing season. It requires a balanced supply of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. When repotting in spring or autumn, you can use fresh potting soil that already contains nutrients. During the active growing period (spring and summer), fertilize once a month. Use a balanced compound fertilizer or diluted organic options like bean cake. Be careful not to let the fertilizer touch the plant directly, as this may damage the roots or cause burns.
Pest and disease control for aloe vera is generally minimal. The plant is resistant to most pests, and diseases are rare. However, brown spot disease can occur. To prevent this, ensure good air circulation, avoid overwatering, and use clean, well-draining soil. If an infection occurs, treat it promptly with fungicides like chlorothalonil or bacteriophage solutions. Regularly inspect your plants and remove any infected leaves to prevent the spread of disease.
Industrial applications editor broadcast
Whetstone sintered corundum (ruby) : A kind of microcrystalline corundum product sintered at high temperature. It has a compact and delicate structure and high hardness and strength.
The products are rosy red. The products are small grinding wheel type whetstone, standard type whetstone and grinding head type whetstone. When grinding the workpiece, it can maintain sharp edge and stable geometry for a long time.
It is suitable for forming and grinding of instrument industry, precision parts, micro cutting tools, tools and precision abrasive tools, etc. The precision surface roughness of machining can reach about 0.05μm.
Product SPECIFICATIONS: flat sand wheel whetstone with diameter less than 100 for small grinding wheel type, whetstone with various geometric shapes less than 200*50*25 for standard type, whetstone with diameter less than 25 for grinding head type.
Grinding method
About diamond grinding paste, particle size from W40 to W0.5. W40 is the coarsest, with a large amount of grinding, and W0.5 is the smallest. It is used for polishing, and it does not anneal, and it can also grind the hard knife.
Method of use:
The coarse W40 abrasive paste applied to borotartar can accelerate and increase the grinding amount without annealing.
Then, AFTER the rough grinding paste on the knife is cleaned, W0.5 grinding paste is applied to the ruby or natural jade for polishing, and the effect thrown out is a mirror.
Green silicon carbide, white corundum, brown corundum of these three kinds of whetstone hardness is not enough, coupled with a little coarse particle size, easy to grind out the cross, and the other three kinds of whetstone in polishing, grinding will not annealing.
If the particle size is greater than 1000, there is no difference. It mainly depends on the grinding paste used. When the grinding paste of W1.5 is applied to the ruby with 1000 mesh, its grinding effect is the effect of the grinding paste of W1.5, that is, the effect of the whetstone with 2500 particle size
