REGROWING MINT LEAVES

  1. First of all, you need mint cuttings. You can buy them from the market or supermarket. Simply snip off a stalk of it, and for maximum results, pluck most of the leaves at the bottom away as shown above.
  2. Make a small hole in the soil and bury a considerable part of the stalk into the soil.
  3. Plant a few more with some spacing between the cuttings.
  4. Water the pot daily with exposure to sunlight and fertilise the soil fortnightly. 
  5. If successful, you can see them growing within a few days or two. If they are not successful, it is quite telling because they will wither quickly. Try again.
