how often to water aloe vera - #13331

Hriday

I am really confused about my aloe vera plant. I got it a few months ago and honestly, I thought it was gonna be super easy to take care of, you know, given how often to water aloe vera seems to be something people throw around. But like, my plant looks kinda sad. At first, I watered it weekly because I heard that’s how often to water aloe vera, but then the leaves started looking wrinkly and brownish. I thought maybe I wasn’t watering it enough or something, so I tried every five days, but then I read that overwatering can be just as bad, if not worse! Ugh! Now I’m really anxious about how often to water aloe vera since it’s crucial for its survival, right? I’ve tried checking the soil, but it’s kinda hard for me to tell... like, how dry is dry enough? My friend said she waters hers every two weeks, but I don’t know if that’s right either. I wish I could just ask my plant directly! Anyway, how often to water aloe vera in general? I just want it to thrive like everyone else’s plants! Any tips would be great.
