My Aloe 1 has been outside all summer, she’s looking a little crispy mostly in the shade any suggestions?

By looking at this and what you posted it needs partial indirect sun and when intense full shade. I move my aloe every time I know it’s gon be extra intense heat..

It got way too much sun 🌞..

Thank you! That’s wild because it’s actually shaded most of the day, but this is Arkansas summer.

That is pretty normal for aloes that get a lot of sun. It is just sun stress, they can handle it.

Thank you!

That being said though, their growth slows down a lot and they enter a state of dormancy if they get that much stress, so really it is up to you.
