To grow mint, you don’t need much intelligence – just dig up a bush and plant it in a new place.

But with those plants that are rare varieties and are grown through seeds, you will have to tinker with them.

The operation will be completed successfully if you first leave the seeds for 10 days in a cool place with a temperature of around +10 degrees.

The right time to plant the seeds in the ground is in April.

Important: find a suitable place for the mint: where it will not interfere with others, if, or rather, when it grows a lot.

The soil for growing mint should be fertile. It wouldn't hurt to add a little humus and ash.

All that remains is to dig up the selected area, make furrows here, the depth of which is 5 cm, water them and spread the seeds.

But it would be better if you were not lazy and first grew seedlings at home, and only then transplanted them into open ground.

To do this, place the seeds in a container filled with fertile soil, sprinkle with a 5 cm layer of soil, moisten, cover with film and leave in this form for 5 days. After the specified time, remove the film, moisten the crops again and wait for the shoots to appear.
