Frequently asked questions

When should I sow peppermint seeds in India?
Sow from February to March or in the cooler post-monsoon weeks of September-October. In hilly and cool regions it can be sown through most of the year; avoid the peak summer heat.
Can peppermint be grown in pots on a balcony?
Yes, pots are actually the best way to grow it. A 20-25 cm wide pot in partial shade with moist, compost-rich soil keeps its spreading roots controlled and gives a steady supply of leaves.
