I. the planting method of peppermint

1. Accelerating budding

(1) the requirement of accelerating germination of peppermint seeds is to keep it moist and not to let too much water, so under normal circumstances, if only a little water is put in, it will dry quickly. Mint germination is usually best at 30 degrees under the condition of high temperature.

(2) first prepare cold boiled water, the water temperature is about 40 degrees, then pour in the peppermint seeds, let the peppermint seeds soak in it for 5 hours, the water temperature does not require constant temperature, just let the water cool naturally.

(3) after the peppermint seeds are soaked, begin to cut the mineral water bottle, cut out part, cut out part is cylindrical, about 5 cm high, then put the cylindrical part on the plate, then cover the top of the cylinder with a piece of tissue paper, the tissue paper can hang to the bottom of the plate, pour the peppermint seeds on the tissue paper in the middle of the circle, and then cover with a layer of tissue paper. Then add water to the plate. The water will be sucked up by the tissue and keep the tissue moist, without making the tissue too wet due to gravity.

2. Sowing seeds

The main results are as follows: (1) sowing time: it is suitable to be planted in autumn and winter, that is, from late October to late November in the south of China, and from March to April in the north.

(2) sowing method:

Generally speaking, for larger seeds (such as lavender and sage), you can order 2-3 seeds in each container. Leave a stronger one after germination depending on the growth of the seedlings. Small seeds (such as Mayoram) can be sown. Touch some seeds with your hands and sprinkle them gently on the soil. The seedlings sprouted after germination. Leave 1-3 seedlings as appropriate.

The thickness of seed cover depends on the size of the seed. It is generally 2-3 times the diameter of the seed. The soil of small seeds is thinner, and the soil of large seeds can be thicker. Some seeds have strong phototaxis and can not be covered with soil (such as vanilla, Rosemary).

Water thoroughly after sowing. A fine spray can is used for watering. Don't push hard so as not to wash the seeds away. It is best to use the sitting basin method, that is, use a large basin to hold 3 basins of water, and sit the container in the basin. Let the water seep in through the bottom hole of the container. The water level in the large basin should not exceed the height of the soil in the container. After sowing, the container should be covered with plastic wrap, and several small holes should be pierced in the plastic film to breathe. Put the container in the sun and keep the temperature about 20 degrees. Most seeds can germinate after a week.

3. Post-germination management

After the seeds germinate, you can take off the cling film. If the seed is small, you can take it off until the seedling is a little stronger.

4. Pot transplanting

After the seedlings grow out of 4 or 6 true leaves, they can be put on the pot. You need to use a small basin at the beginning. Wait for the seedling to grow up, and then replace the big basin as appropriate. When changing the basin, wait until the soil is dry (because it should be watered after changing the basin, if the soil is wet, the wet time is too long, and the seedlings are easy to grow poorly). First, add more than half of the fertile soil to the small basin. In order not to destroy the root system, there is no need to shake off the soil near the root when transplanting. Move it directly into a small basin and fill the soil with the roots. Be sure to water thoroughly and shade for a few days after transplantation. And then you can put it in the sun and take care of it.

What are the prospects for growing mint?

Analysis of yield per mu and economic benefits (for your reference only, not as a basis for investment)

Mint can be harvested three times a year. The yield is 200 kilograms per mu. Mint tree, in full bloom, cut off the whole mint root with a sickle, dry it and sell it. It can be harvested twice a year with a yield of 500 kilograms per mu. Mint can be harvested twice a year. The yield is 20 kilograms per mu.

Output value per mu:

Leaf: 200Kg × 10000yuan; tree: 500Kg × 3000yuan; seed root: 1000Kg × 3000yuan; total: 6500 yuan.

Cost accounting: seed stem: 60Kg × 4000RMB; fertilizer: 50Kg × 21400 yuan; machine tillage: 20 yuan

Labor: 60 yuan; pesticide: 10 yuan. Total: 430 yuan.

Net profit: 6500, 430,000, 6070 yuan.

Third, what are the effects and functions
