I have an Aloe plant that my wife left outside without water for 4 months.
Luckily it's still alive, I gave it a little water and brought it inside
to a shady place and it seems to be doing better. Is there anything else
I should be doing, ie fertilize, and in so what type and how much.
Thanks.
You don't say where you are, but here in Central Florida, your wife's idea
of care has worked for my aloe for the last ten years. It's in the only area
of the yard that I never water, And all I've done to it in that time is
prune it back. I remove about half of the patch about every six months. It
grows like crazy and blooms on occasion.
