Mint leaves are the most feared plant for mosquitoes, how should they be planted? Because the root system of peppermint is horizontal, the roots can produce countless tubular branches. New roots can sprout at the junction between each tube.
As long as it is separate, it is a separate individual. It can live in water and can also grow in soil. It can take root in water or soil and grow well.
Therefore, even if only one small tree is planted in the yard, in less than a year, its root system will grow in cracks, grow in open fields, and run in all directions, severely damaging and affecting the yard's environment. In addition, mint produces countless small seeds after flowering. When the seeds fall on **, they will germinate and grow more mint.
When cultivated in the field, it is difficult to remove them.
Therefore, the farmer's sister-in-law suggested that potted plants could be used. There are no special requirements for potted mint. As long as you choose a pot with good air permeability, mint has no soil requirements, and general garden soil can be planted. This splash plant grows well no matter what.
When planting, you can plant the isolated mint directly in a pot, add water for control, and then slowly put it in a cool and ventilated place. You can also cut sturdy branches to cut and water regularly after cutting to keep the soil moist. If you want the cuttings to take root as soon as possible, you can soak the cuttings in the rooting powder solution before cuttings or spray the rooting powder solution after cuttings.
Both of these methods promote the rooting of peppermint and increase the survival rate.
Peppermint's daily management methods. Mint likes a warm and humid environment, so as long as you see the potting soil turning white when you plant mint, you should water it in time, and pay attention to watering the potting soil thoroughly at one time. In addition, in daily maintenance, potted mint does not require special fertilization, and its root system has a strong explosive power.
Potted mint needs to be replaced every year. As long as a small amount of base fertilizer is added when changing pots in spring, it can meet the growth needs of mint.
Due to its distinctive smell, peppermint generally does not breed pests. The main diseases that harm the disease are spot blight and leaf rust. For the prevention and control of both diseases, we can spray twice a night with a Bordeaux mixture.
In conclusion, peppermint is a splash plant that is easy to care for. As long as we master the four steps of light, watering, fertilizing and repotting, we can bring vigorous vitality.

Peppermint likes the sun, it does not grow luxuriant in places with little sunlight, the leaves appear thin, and the color is dull and poor, but the leaves grow large in more sunlight, so as long as the conditions allow, put the thin fertilizer in a sunny or even completely open space location to let it grow quickly.

Put a few small stones at the bottom of the pot, pour in part of the soil, compact, and then put the mint seedlings that have propagated into the soil, and sprinkle the remaining soil into the pot with your hands, and never press it by hand, because it is easy to crush the fragile roots.

But mosquito repellent grass is not good indoors, right? Those smells are not so easy to accept
You may be a little sensitive at night, and mint is good, but mosquito repellent is certainly not as good as mosquito repellent.
10 square meters, put a mosquito repellent grass is enough, the whole room basically has these smells. Peppermint, two to three plants, can almost have the effect of mosquito repellent. What to plant, it depends on your personal preference, in fact, it is all feasible.
Mosquito repellent grass is a little more difficult to grow than mint, which is easy to take care of, if it is not too dry, watering once a week is enough.

So, I'd suggest you spend a little more money on a few more trees, spend more time watering them, and buy mint.
But mosquito repellent grass is also OK, in general, it depends on your own.
