Everyone is familiar with its delicate refreshing taste and invigorating aroma. Where are its properties used?

  • It is used not only raw, but also as an additive to confectionery;
  • Massive minced meat;
  • In the tobacco industry, etc.
  • The sauce from this plant goes well with homemade lamb dishes;
  • Fresh mint is suitable for adding it to soups, salads, sandwiches, etc.
  • Many industries in Europe and Asia use it to create essential oils. It is obtained by distilling the stems, which must be cut off before ripening. It is also ideal for the food industry.

Growing mint at home is not that difficult. There are dwarf varieties with small leaves that do not take up much space. There are also decorative varieties. If there is a ventilated place in the house where there is a lot of diffused light, then the mint will grow like in the yard. It must be remembered that it grows abundantly, and it will have to be thinned and planted regularly.

Mint has a well-known property - it dries quickly. This happens, in particular, on hot days, if you cut off a few branches. This is used by lovers of traditional medicine - they quickly dry the required amount of mint, getting natural raw materials. In order to get a plant, one leaf is enough - it germinates in a glass of water. This is how indoor mint is grown.

I tried many times to grow dwarf mint, but it just doesn't work. I just didn’t know, and I haven’t seen anywhere on the Internet, that it needs a ventilated place with dissecting light. To be honest, this is the first time I've heard this. Now I will try according to your method.

I tried to grow indoor mint, but to no avail, it is a very delicate plant that reacts quickly to sunlight, temperature and humidity, so I planted a regular mint in the garden.
