Pudina is an essential addition to an Indian pantry. It is used in mocktails, raita, paratha, traditional drinks, and more. Here is how you can grow it at home.

Method

Decide whether you will grow pudina using cuttings, seeds, or nursery plants. You can grow the plants using cuttings easily.

Select Pot

Since mint spreads aggressively, you should use the right pot and soil. The diameter should be 6-8 inches. Soil should be moist and fertile.

Planting

Remove the leaves and place the step in a glass of water. Once the roots are about an inch long, place the stems inside the pot.

Sunlight

Mint loves sunlight or partial shade. Therefore, choose the right spot on the balcony. It should get 4-6 hours of sunlight in a day.

Watering

Mint thrives in moist soil, so make sure it gets water every day. If the soil feels dry in your hands, water it.
