How to grow mint for high yield

1. Planting environment

Not only does the rhizome of mint have a strong sprouting power, but the sprouting power of the above-ground stems should not be underestimated. It can grow in areas with lower or higher altitudes, which shows that its ability to adapt to the environment is very strong. There is no need to worry about the mint not being able to survive due to poor maintenance.

2. Soil

Mint has a wide adaptability to soil, and ordinary soil can meet its growth needs. This provides great convenience for farmers who grow mint. Both sandy loam and humus soil can be cultivated. It is most appropriate to control the pH value of the soil between 6 and 7.5.

3. Sunlight

Although mint loves sunlight very much, excessive direct sunlight will also affect its growth. During the cultivation period, direct sunlight should be avoided. You can use some places close to the wall to have a certain buffering effect on the sunlight.

4. Watering

The soil of mint should be kept moist during its growth period, because mint prefers a humid environment, but everything should be done in moderation, so the amount of water should not be too large. During daily watering, if the soil is still moist, then there is no need to water it again. If the soil has no moisture, then watering is needed.
