How to propagate mint by cuttings

1. Cutting method

1. Select branches: Cut 8-15cm branches from mature mint and keep 4-5 leaves. Be careful not to choose branches that are too tender and do not leave too many leaves on the branches, otherwise nutrients will be wasted.

2. Hydroponic rooting: If the branches have no roots, you can place them in a cup for hydroponics for a period of time, and take them out after they take root. This can increase the survival rate.

3. Transplant into pots: Choose well-drained sandy soil such as pure vermiculite or perlite as the soil, plant the rooted seedlings into the soil, and keep the soil moist.

2. Precautions

1. In addition, the time for cuttings should be chosen in the spring and summer season of April to May.

2. Place the plant in an environment of 20-30℃, which is suitable for plant growth.

3. Regularly pruning the plant during maintenance can make it grow faster.

4. It is a water-loving plant and can be watered once a day.
