Eva Eva Member Registered: 04/11/08 Posts: 27	My husband's Aunt just gave me an aloe plant and I have no idea how to take care of it! She plucked it from her yard and gave it to me in a little dirt; so I brought it home, repotted it, and put it in my sun-room. Now the tips are turning brown! What do I do?

Gardening dirt is NO GOOD. It's too heavy. _________________________ My memory's not as sharp as it used to be. Also, my memory's not as sharp as it used to be.
