I have an Aloe Vera that I bought at Home Depot last year and it's doing
quite well, and in my searches online for more info, there was something
about using the offshoots to plant more aloe, but never found a more
detailed description about what offshoots are. Are they like runners for
strawberry/mint, or something else?


The offshoots look like smaller versions of the mother plant. When they're a
nice size, about 1/4 the size of the original plant and have some of their
own roots you can remove them. Keep them in barely damp sandy soil until
well rooted.
