Mint

[sixthleafclovr]

Anyone experienced with growing mint? I've got a small peppermint and a spearmint from home depot. I'm not sure if they constantly need water or more nutrients... I've been giving them some coffee grinds and epson salt in the soil mix. They seem to be doing fine.. minus something chewing on their leaves at night.

We grow a few different types of mint. It's been hard to find the exact balance, but with proper pruning and watering they seem to be pretty happy! We only fertilized them once when we planted them a few months ago, and they have been happy since

Ok! I was reading on the internet that they have deep roots.. so I'm assuming I probably need to plant them in a deeper pot rather than a regular pot. I'll have to do that later...
