How to Grow Agrimax Mint:
Planting Location: Mint thrives in a sunny to partially shaded location. It prefers moist, well-drained, and slightly acidic to neutral soil (pH 6.0-7.0). While mint can tolerate a variety of soil types, it grows best in rich, loamy soil with plenty of organic matter.
Sowing the Seeds: Sow mint seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date, or directly outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Gently press the seeds into the soil but do not cover them, as they need light to germinate. Space seeds 1-2 inches (2.5-5 cm) apart.
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, but avoid waterlogging. Mint enjoys regular watering, especially during dry spells, but make sure the soil drains well to prevent root rot.
Transplanting: If starting indoors, transplant seedlings outdoors once they have grown large enough and the risk of frost has passed. Space the plants about 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) apart, as mint can spread rapidly.
Fertilizing: Mint generally doesn’t require heavy fertilization. Apply a light layer of compost or a balanced, slow-release fertilizer before planting. If growing in containers, you can feed the plants with a diluted liquid fertilizer during the growing season.
Weeding and Mulching: Keep the planting area free of weeds to reduce competition. Mint can also spread quickly, so be mindful of its growth. Mulching around the plants helps retain moisture and suppress weed growth.
Harvesting: Mint can be harvested as soon as the plants are large enough, typically 60-90 days after planting. Harvest by snipping leaves or cutting stems back to promote bushier growth. For the best flavor, harvest mint before it flowers.
Storage: Fresh mint can be stored in the fridge wrapped in a damp paper towel, or you can freeze it for later use. Simply chop the leaves and store them in an airtight container or freezer bag.
