What's wrong with my Aloe Vera

just that really. It's gone floppy 😔 it's next to a French Door which isn't opened often (if at all) watered about once a week if that.

Any advice, i'd be so sad if it does.

Thank you!

Mines done the same 😣

It sounds overwatered.

Once a week is too much for a succulent even in the summer. I’d repot into nice gritty compost, put in a sunny spot and water only when bone dry.

I think you're watering too much. The highest stem looks discoloured, thats how mine looked when i put them out in the sun. If they get used to British cold weather then when it's warm the sun and heat can be a bit of a shock to them.

They grow in arid conditions and that's what they want. Agree with repot in gritty compost and water only when bone dry. Water out of the yellow pot and then drain before returning it so that it doesn't sit in water.
