Bought 2 new Aloes today, and planted them together!

When I bought them, the soil was extremely wet, I transplanted them into dry succulent-cactus soil. But am waiting to water it for a few days. Is that okay?

Yes, aloes don’t require you to water them often. They are like cactuses and succulents with care

Thank you! I thought letting it dry out for a while would help it. But how many days is too long? I’m watering my other one about every 20 days.
