Growing climate

Mint likes to grow in a humid climate and prefers a moist but not too humid environment; so avoid a dry growing environment and make sure to water the surrounding area frequently, especially in the hot and dry summer, and pay attention to moisturizing.

Lighting Management

Mint cannot tolerate strong sunlight, but there must be enough light for the plant to grow healthily, so a good lighting environment must also be provided. The less light there is, the easier it is for the plant to grow too tall, causing the plant to become thinner and taller, with branches and leaves drooping, which will affect its aesthetics and reduce the number of flowers that bloom.

Fertilization management

When applying fertilizer, you only need to apply some triple or multi-component fertilizer in the water body or in the potting soil so that the roots and stems can absorb sufficient nutrients.

You also need to use special fertilizers needed by the plants, such as potassium fertilizer. Apply potassium fertilizer on time and in the right amount to ensure the plant's absorption, promote growth, lay a good foundation before flowering, and make the flowers bloom more and bigger.
