When to Plant Lemon Mint Seeds
Time to get planting! Toss those Lemon Mint seeds into the ground in spring or early fall. For spring planting, kick things off indoors in late winter—let’s get a jump on the gardening season!
Where to Plant Lemon Mint Seeds
Lemon Mint loves to soak up the sun, so pick a spot with full sun or partial shade. It’s not picky about soil and will thrive in dry to medium moisture, well-drained dirt—even the not-so-great stuff! Plus, it’s tough as nails, tolerating both heat and drought like a champ.
How to Plant Lemon Mint Seeds
Here’s the scoop: Lemon Mint seeds need light to germinate, so don’t go burying them like a treasure! Start by sowing those little beauties in small pots, give them a little starter fertilizer, and water them well. After the initial drink, only water when the surface feels dry—no one likes soggy soil! Throughout the growing season, pinch off the tops a few times to encourage a bushier growth habit. When the roots have filled the pot—about two months later—they’re ready for their big garden debut. Space those plants 20-30 inches apart in sunny, weed-free soil and keep the soil moist until germination.
How to Care for Lemon Mint
To keep your Lemon Mint happy and healthy, thin out those large clumps to improve air circulation and prevent powdery mildew. And don’t forget to deadhead regularly to keep those blooms coming—your garden will be the talk of the town! Happy gardening!
