Mint Watering OverviewMint likes warm and humid environment, so it should be watered more frequently in spring and summer. It needs to be moved indoors to overwinter in winter. It needs less water in winter, and should be watered once every one to two weeks. How to judge whether to water: Watering depends on the humidity of the soil. If it is dry, water it. If it is a normal morning, just take a spray bottle and spray some on the leaves. Remember to spray water at night as well. Just do this every day. If it rains and the soil is very wet, you don't need to water it. How often should you water? Watering should be done strictly according to soil moisture. You can water mint every 2-3 days in spring and autumn, 1-2 times a day in summer, and every 5-7 days in winter. You should grasp the watering time well. In hot weather, you should water it in the morning. In cold weather, you should water it when the temperature is slightly higher. After watering, you should ventilate the plant and water it thoroughly. Should you water thoroughly: When watering, do not just water halfway. The soil in the pot should be watered thoroughly. You cannot just wet the surface of the soil while the soil inside is still dry. The correct way to water mintWhen watering, the soil should be watered thoroughly. Do not water the center of the leaves, as the water will not evaporate and will cause them to rot. You can also use the immersion method to replenish water, which will not easily cause water accumulation in the pot. Watering should be done in the morning in spring, summer and autumn, especially in summer. It must not be done at noon when the temperature is high. In addition, water can only be poured after the soil becomes dry. No watering is required in a wet state. What water is best for watering: Mint is generally best watered with river water, rainwater, or well water. In fact, as long as the water is not particularly turbid or polluted, it can be used to water mint. However, the water used for watering needs to be left for a while before watering, so as to avoid excessive temperature differences that may damage the roots of the mint. Watering should be appropriate: It is generally recommended to water about 300 ml of water at a time. When watering mint, be sure to water it thoroughly when the soil is dry, but do not water too much. Waterlogging is strictly prohibited. Watering methods and techniques: After repotting the mint, use clean water to water from the surface of the soil until the soil is completely soaked. Stop watering after water droplets drip out of the drainage holes at the bottom of the pot. After the first watering, you need to wait until the soil becomes dry before watering it a second time. When watering, you must also water it thoroughly. Do not water halfway, otherwise it will cause damage to its root system.
