What should I do when Aloe Vera plants grow baby plants?
user
Aloe Vera plants usually grow baby plants, so I don’t think it’s necessarily a problem, I would just need more context.

Should I re-pot the babies in their own pots or should I get a bigger bot for all of them?
user
In most cases it would be best to re-pot the babies, as babies that are close to each other might grow too strong and their roots could damage each other.  I can tell you how to re-pot the babies without damaging their roots.  The first thing I’d do is choose a bigger pot, with drainage holes.  Then I’d take a smaller pot and fill it with the same type of potting soil you have in your bigger pot.  Then I’d carefully pull the baby plants out of the big pot and plant them into the smaller pot.  The smaller pot should be bigger than the new root ball, but the plant should still be able to grow into the pot.  So if you had a baby plant with a root ball around 6cm wide, you could put it into a smaller pot that’s around 8cm wide.  You should also water them regularly, as with any young plants.

I bet the roots of the babies and the mother plant are all twisted up together. How can I separate them?
user
Sometimes the mother plant may have a thick mass of roots, and it’s hard to tell where the roots of the babies end and where the mother plant begins.  The best way to separate them is to take a trowel and remove a layer of the soil, just to see how the roots are arranged.  The mother plant should be at the bottom.  If this is true, I think the best thing to do would be to carefully pull the mother plant out of the pot, and re-pot the baby plants separately.
assistant
What if I have to cut some roots to separate them?
user
If you must cut roots to separate them, that’s fine, as long as you’re careful not to harm the other roots of the mother plant.  If you want to go the less aggressive route, you could try to tease the roots apart with a garden fork.  I find that the roots are less likely to break or be damaged that way.  One caution about this approach is that the roots are pretty brittle, so you don’t want to be digging around too much in the potting soil, as it could break the roots.  If you have to do this, I would start by removing some soil from the sides of the pot, so that you’re not digging too much.

user
If the mother plant is under the soil, and it looks like the roots of the babies are all tangled together and you have to cut them to separate them, it would be best to give the mother plant to someone else.  If you cut the mother plant’s roots, it could weaken the plant and make it less healthy.
