yellowed aloe vera


Question
Sorry to bug you again Greg.  

Your comment about sunlight got me thinking.

When I transplanted the aloe, I moved it to the "recovery room" (my office) from the living room.  In both places it was in a south-facing window but there is quite a bit more sun where the plant is now.

Should I cut back on the sun a bit?
(I thought succulents were sun-junkies)

Thanks again.

Jamie

Hi Greg.  Thanks for getting back to me.


Answer
Dear Jamie,

They are sun junkies, but only if they have always been in sun. Moving them into the sun from a shaded location can cause them to sunburn. Succulents build up a thicker skin on the sunny side to protect themselves. After transplanting anything though, it is best to not change the conditions too drastically. Hopefully this helps!

Greg

p.s. - your not bugging me :-)
