I just got this aloe. I reported it and trimmed some of its leaves. Now it is turning brown and sagging. Any idea what is causing it?

Does this pot have drainage? Aloe really hates sitting in wet soil

Looks like root rot

Browning is one indication of root rot. Would suggest doing a root cleanse

Oh no that’s most likely root rot re pot with drainage holes :)
