Bought little grocery store aloe. Kept 8 same pot for 3 years until roots broke pot. Plopped it in a big old metal corn pot. Now the thing weighs 70 plus Lbs and looks like it has outgrown this pot. Hundreds of babies, and every other size. It has been 5 years....I don't even know how I can get this out of pot to thin out. Are aloes hardy enough to be manhandled? There is one 'baby" that is growing outside pot resting on table that is 2 1/2 feet tall and at least that wide. I do use it alot, almost daily. The more I use, the more it grows. Don't want to damage Bertha, any suggestions where to start after years of neglect?
