1、 Planting steps

1. Selection of propagation type: Apple mint can be divided into cutting propagation and seed sowing. Because the apple Mint propagated by seeds not only grows slowly, but also easily mutates with death, so generally speaking, we use cutting to propagate Apple mint

2. Choose breeding time: we can choose to sow in spring or winter. Spring planting is generally in late March and winter planting is generally in late October

3. Seed preservation: because too high temperature is easy to cause water shortage and death of Apple Mint seeds, we should keep the seeds in a cool place in summer

4. Loosen soil: before sowing, select loose soil with good drainage, and thoroughly water the soil before sowing Apple mint

5. Sowing: when we sow seeds, we should pay attention to uniform distribution. Because the seeds of Apple mint are very small, there is no need to cover the soil layer

6. Water spraying: after sowing, we can spray water on the seeds with a watering can to keep the moisture of the soil suitable

7. Heat preservation: in the early stage of sowing, we can choose to cover with plastic wrap for heat preservation. After the seeds of Apple Mint germinate, we can remove the plastic wrap

2、 Maintenance

1. Soil selection: we choose loose and fertile sandy soil with good drainage

2. Colonization: after Apple Mint seeds grow five to six leaves, we can choose to colonize. We should first straighten the small apple Mint seedling and straighten out its roots. Then, we need to fill in the soil and compact it. Finally, we need to water through the soil at one time

3. Topdressing: after the small apple Mint seedlings grow for a period of time, we can choose to topdressing an appropriate amount of fertilizer

4. Water regulation: continuous regulation should be carried out during the continuous growth of Apple Mint seedlings. In the early stage of growth, apple Mint seedlings need more water, while Apple Mint seedlings need less water during flowering

Sunshine: Apple Mint seedlings need sufficient light. If the light is insufficient, apple Mint seedlings are easy to grow in vain
