Ramets of peppermint

Mint is mainly cultivated in the open field. If we want to cultivate in a large area, we often choose a simple and easy method of ramet propagation

First of all, we should choose a strong mint plant without diseases and pests as the mother plant, make the mother plant crawl, and the stem is in close contact with the ground, and then water and topdressing twice. When planting in a large area, apply 10-15kg urea per mu. After the adventitious roots are produced in the stem nodes of the mother plant, cut each node, and each ramet is a seedling. So the mint can be divided

Peppermint planting

When planting peppermint, the requirements for soil are not high, but it is better to use semi sandy loam with deep soil layer, loose and fertile, rich in organic matter, and the suitable growth temperature is 20-30 ° C

Peppermint likes sunshine and is not suitable for planting in dark places. Mint is best planted while digging the soil, so as to prevent the roots from drying

When sowing peppermint, water thoroughly, but prevent small peppermint seeds from being washed away. Loose soil can effectively drain water and improve the germination rate of seeds. After watering, you can cover the planting container with fresh-keeping film, prick small holes for ventilation and put it in the sun. In this case, peppermint seeds germinate after one to two weeks

After the mint sprouts, the plastic wrap should be removed. At this time, the soil can be replaced with ordinary garden soil. When watering, you can't pour it on the leaves of young buds, which can prevent the disease of young peppermint
