Growing environment

Mint has a relatively strong ability to adapt to environmental conditions, and can grow in areas below 2100 m in altitude; it grows in damp places beside water, and can be found at altitudes up to 3500 m.

Temperature

Mint has a relatively strong ability to adapt to temperature; its rhizomes overwinter and can withstand low temperatures of -15°C. Its suitable growing temperature is 25°C-30°C. When the temperature is below 15°C, growth is slow; when it is above 20°C, growth speeds up. At 20°C-30°C, as long as water and fertilizer are suitable, the higher the temperature, the faster the growth.

Light

Mint is a long-day plant and likes sunlight. Long daylight hours can promote mint flowering and are also beneficial for the accumulation of mint oil and menthol.

For example: mint porridge. Effects: refreshes the mind, dispels wind and dissipates heat, increases appetite, and helps digestion.

Mint tofu: can treat symptoms such as wind-cold nasal congestion, sneezing, and runny nose.

Mint chicken shreds: clears internal heat and relieves summer heat.

Mint cake: cooling, dispels wind and dissipates heat, clears the throat and benefits the voice.

Fresh mint crucian carp soup: can treat chronic cough in children.

Mint soup: detoxifies and reduces internal heat.

Mint herbal tea: after drinking it, the whole body feels comfortable.

In addition, mint stems and leaves are fragrant and can be used to make chewing gum, toothpaste, and more, providing a cooling, refreshing effect and reducing internal heat.

In addition, mint can be used to make honey; the honey is dark in color, appearing dark amber, and has a relatively strong distinctive mint aroma.
