Help! My aloe of 15 years hasnt taken this move very well, over the last 3 months shes been “ok” then i noticed no new growth. Suddenly last night she fell over. I went to check roots today and theyre squishy 😭😭 is she gone for good? What can i do?! She used to give so many babies and be such a staple of my home

It sounds like a case of root rot 😢 I’d take her out, clean off the dirt so you can assess the roots, and trim off any brown squishy ones, and repot her. Hopefully she has enough to make it!

Well, i trimmed it all the rot off and unfortunately it had no good roots. I highly doubt she will grow roots from the fibrous stem but.. im gonna try 😞
