Prepare a Hydroponic Setup: You'll need a container with a lid (like a plastic bottle or a small bucket), water, and a growing medium like perlite or coco coir. Planting the Seeds: Fill the container with water, leaving some space at the top. Place the seeds gently on top of the growing medium. Press them lightly into the medium, ensuring they make contact but are not buried. Provide Light: Place the container in a location that receives indirect sunlight or under grow lights for about 12-14 hours a day. Mint plants thrive in bright light conditions. Maintain Water Levels: Monitor the water level regularly and top up as needed to ensure the roots remain submerged but not fully flooded. Monitor Growth: Mint seeds typically germinate within 1-2 weeks. Once seedlings appear, thin them out if overcrowded, leaving the strongest ones. Harvesting: You can start harvesting mint leaves when the plants reach a few inches in height. Harvest by pinching off the top leaves to encourage bushier growth. Maintenance: Change the water every 1-2 weeks to prevent stagnation and add fresh nutrients. Keep an eye out for any pests or diseases.
