Aloe for Dummies: Top Heavy Aloe

[rmaniacnyc]

Can I cut the top most leaves? Will it stop it's growth. The stem is small and the plant is too heavy and cannot stand up on it's own. I have to rest it on the wall.

I don't know anything about aloe plants :-)

TIA

Since were on the topic of aloe plants...

Are all aloe edible? If not, how do you tell an edible aloe from a non-edible aloe?

Thanks for any help.
