    I can make it grow, but what happens when it goes floppy

    Ha

    That got your attention - yeah I know

    Well I have a big problem!
    When I got it, it was small, nicely proportioned, firm and well formed.
    But now it's grown and gone a bit wild.

    So advice needed . . . .

    how can I shorten this beast and reform the root bulb. You will notice it is a tad top heavy. Do i just plant it deeper or hack its bum off and dip it in rooting compound however dirty that sounds!

    Oh and it's having a baby but I can cope with babies. I need to get the thing shortened or bolstered up a bit. What can I do?

    Oh and for the uninitiated it's an Aloe Vera! and it's my baby x x x

    Have a quick look at http://www.aloevera11.com/ there's a section on looking after these suckers

    Oh, and they aren't babies, they are pups...
