Oh, VooDooU, you bet I confronted my neighbor, and also sent pictures to my landlord and saved samples of the stuff. The whole incident is very creepy, and that it\'s happened twice... My landlord already spoke to the neighbor after the *1st* incident. Something is not right with that apartment.

Well, so I let the aloe plants sit overnight in water and then this morning I put them all into mason jars and cactus soil. It\'s a temporary fix, I know they can\'t live forever in drainage-free houses. But I did read that after transplanting one doesn\'t water for a week or so anyway, so I figure that will give me time to acquire the pots I need. Fingers crossed...

Still really curious about best ways to \"detox\" plants in a situation like this. Who knows, I might need the knowledge in the future...
