turned up nothing. Alot turns up on a web search, though.

Specifically seeking details on rooting aloe vera plants and
appreciate any help and comments.

Use a sharp knife to take a cutting. Allow the cut to heal for 2
days, bright light, no sun. Put 1" of gravel in a tall glass, place
in bright light, and keep water level below the gravel. I've rooted
many succulent and cactus plants this way.
