Could one use aloe vera leaves "juice" as a foliar spray, like a tablespoon per 20 gallons, says that it is mostly water- 96%, and 4 percent essential nutrients and enzymes, and also just slightly acidic... anyone know? Thanks in advance, Steve

well, not only that steve, but also adding it with water and spraying it over the entire plant, but could it also keep the skin elastic to maybe help with splits? thanks, Steve
