Plant reaches maturity in four years when the leaves are harvested. The plants can be harvested every 6-8 weeks by removing 3 to 4 leaves per plant.
Leaves may be frozen and used defrosted. I have also successfully pickled them in colloidal silver. Fresh leaves may last several days wrapped and kept in a fridge.

Wow! In colloidal silver? How does that work and what are the benefits? How do you use pickled aloe? I make my own colloidal silver for personal consumption, and have an altar of aloe and use it externally almost every day. I am interested in growing it and harvesting it on a scale for drinking on a regular basis but I don't think my collection is big enough yet. Plus the thought of cutting up my beautiful aloes sort of pains me. I am interested in your explorations and would love to share info sometime. Great stuff.
