Let me tell you how to grow Mint leaf in a container
It's a beautiful thread
Retweet to your followers!

Mint plant is invasive..easy to grow and can last for years.
Since it's home planting we use Pot/container.
Get your loamy soil with Organic fertilizer (Animal dung) mix thoroughly.
Put soil in continer (make a hole at the bottom of container but cover it with stone or gravel.

After that is done what you need is your starter plant.
It's hard to get Mint Leaf seeds.. so most time we cut from existing plant.
If you want to cut from existing plant cut below the node (where leaf grows)
Remove the leaf above the node leaving only the top leaves.
LIKE THIS

Use your Index finger to press the soil, plant your Mint leave leaving like 2 of the plant above the soil.
You can plant more than one of the cut stem in a container depending on size. Add water to the soil (please don't flood the container with water it's to keep soil moist)

Please don't put it directly under sunlight..But where the soil will get sunlight and afternoon shade.
Your mint plant grows fast & well.
You can harvest your mint leaf as you want.
Cut a stem remove the leaf &keep in ziplock bag place in your fridge.
