Sowing instructions
The seeds of Aloe arborescens can be sown without pre-treatment. They are simply placed on the substrate, but not covered with it. They germinate after five to ten days at 73 to 79 °F (23 to 26 °C).
Bird sand or other permeable substrates are suitable for growing. To prevent the seeds from drying out, the glass was covered until they had all germinated.
Sowing and growing is possible all year round. As I sowed in winter, using a 15 watt LED bulb. The growing location should be sunny and warm.
