Can mint be grown in water?

1. Can it be raised in water?

Mint has strong adaptability and is not picky about the surrounding growing environment, so it can be grown in water. It is also very simple to maintain and manage, and the possibility of insect infestation is reduced. In addition, mint likes sufficient water. If it is grown in soil, it needs to be watered frequently, while hydroponics can provide sufficient water. However, hydroponics also has its disadvantages, which is that it is easy to die. If the water is not changed for a long time, the roots of the plants will easily rot and the plants will die.

2. Water culture method

1. Cut a branch from a healthy plant, about 4-5 cm in length, and avoid diseased, insect-infested and weak branches. Handle the leaves under the branches to prevent them from being soaked in water and rotting.

2. Prepare a transparent glass container, wash it clean and disinfect it before use. Pour clean water into the glass container. The clean water must be prepared in advance and taken from the water pipe and placed aside to evaporate the chlorine.

3. Insert the processed branches into the water and place them in a sunny place. Change the water every 1-2 times at the beginning and add some nutrient solution appropriately. After a few days, fine roots will grow and you won't need to change the water so frequently. You can just change the water once a week.
