AOA to all dear brothers.....
i want to grow mint in my garden but i dont know how to do it
experts please let me know whole procedure.
one more thing that sunlight remains whole day in my garden
regards

I think the quickest way to grow mint is to sow 10-15 stem cuttings in the soil. Ensure that stem nodes are well covered in the soil. Most of the stems will survive. You can use the same stems "bunch" which we purchase from the vegetable market.

Poodina likes sun but it cannot tolerate dry soil. It instantly wilts.

thanks sir

Well, that depends on the weather. Keep the soil moist by a light water spray. May be on a hot day, I would spray water daily or even twice. Mints roots are very shallow - they do not penetrate deep into the soil. Over-watering and stagnant water will, of course, kill any plant.

Good luck!

thamks alot bhaii
be happy always

Why not just grow it where there is moist soil like a garden tap(there is a moist spot in every garden) and get it over with? Nice moist cool partial shade spot. You have designed the most simple thing into a Intensive Care Unit.
Enjoy the thought.

@ka masoud thanks alot sir

Now days it is so much raining in Lahore can we grow it now days?

As long as the soil is well draining (i.e. water does not stand for hours after raining) mint should do well.

I have noticed that if you cover the plant at the start with plastic sheet for some time moisture loss is diminished and chances of success increase.
