I accidentally fell in love with such a tree raised at home in summer.

In summer, everyone likes to raise a few pots of mint bar, not only looks good, but also can repel mosquitoes and insects, some varieties can also be eaten as vegetables or picked to make tea, there is a light fragrance in the house, refreshing! I didn't have any feelings for this product before, but recently I raised a few pots and accidentally fell in love with it.

What do you need to pay attention to when cultivating mint? How to breed them? Let me introduce you today.

1. Variety selection. There are many varieties of mint, such as lemon mint, peppermint, pineapple mint, spearmint, etc. If you want to grow it to eat, peppermint and spearmint taste good. We usually buy these two varieties in the market. If you are only breeding to watch, then the above varieties can be selected.

2. Selection of basin soil. Mint likes loose, breathable soil, the requirements for soil are not very high, with some garden soil or buy some nutrient soil online are basically to meet the requirements. The material of the flowerpot is better, the air permeability is good, and the mint does not need to be matched with a beautiful flowerpot. It can be directly about 15-20cm.

3. Water and fertilizer. Peppermint still prefers soil with sufficient moisture, especially in summer. It should be watered once a day, and every time it is watered, it should be thoroughly watered, otherwise it is easy to rot roots. If indoor ventilation is not so good, it is necessary to water less frequently to prevent ponding in the basin. You can try to use the flower detector to detect the water and fertilizer situation of the pot soil. As long as the instrument is inserted into the pot soil, you can detect the water and fertilizer content of flowers and plants, so as to achieve scientific watering.

Some of the mint leaves raised by flower friends are green, some look like malnutrition, a little yellow, this is mint nutrition deficiency. Mint in the growth period is the need for fertilizer, you can choose flowers to understand fruit and vegetable organic nutrient solution, pure plant fermentation, zero hormones, safety. Fertilize once a half month, mint grows green.

4. Light. Peppermint likes sunshine, if there is enough sunshine, it will grow faster, and it is more suitable for breeding in summer. If the sun is not enough, the leaves will stop growing and the resistance of the plant will become weaker, so give the mint more sun.

Mint cultivation has a small pot explosion skills, in the mint growth period, constantly topping the heart, you can let mint grow a lot of side buds, pot explosion is so simple oh. So, does raising a mint at home look like a treasure?
