Planting mint needs to master planting time, soil selection, temperature change, watering and fertilization and so on. It is usually planted in spring and autumn every year, and sandy loam or alluvial soil is the most suitable, which needs to be tested for pH. During the growth of peppermint, the temperature should be controlled between 25 and 30 degrees Celsius, water and fertilize frequently, keep the environment well ventilated, and the survival rate is higher.

3, moisture: sufficient water can make peppermint grow better, especially in the early stage of growth, the demand for water is greater, usually watered thoroughly. If the temperature is low in winter, the amount of water should be reduced appropriately.

4. Temperature: the most suitable temperature for its growth is 25-30 ℃. If the temperature is lower than 15 ℃, it will grow slowly. At the suitable growth temperature, as long as the water and fertilizer are reasonable, the higher the temperature, the faster it will grow.
