Growing and Usage Tips
To optimize germination and growth, follow these simple practices:
Sowing : sow on the surface or under a light layer of 0.5 cm; keep the substrate moist but not waterlogged.
Placement : space plants approximately 15–20 cm apart; in pots, prefer a container at least 20–25 cm in diameter; sunny to partial shade exposure depending on your climate.
Care : light mulching to retain moisture; avoid excessive fertilizers which can encourage lush but less aromatic growth; regularly prune stems to obtain a compact plant and abundant leaves.
Harvesting : pick leaves when plants have several pairs of leaves; prioritize harvesting from the edges to encourage branching and continuous production.
Practical note: spearmint tends to spread well. If you don't want it to invade your garden, prefer growing it in pots or raised beds to control its growth.
