Recommended Chaiyo Mix for Home Growing
For home growing, we recommend 100% Chaiyo Universal Substrate for mint plants.
Mint enjoys slightly moist media, but it should not stay soggy for too long. If your growing area is more shaded, humid, cooler or has lower airflow, add Perlite 2–4mm or 4–8mm to improve drainage and airflow.
Adjust watering based on sunlight, airflow, heat and humidity.

Snip leaves regularly to encourage bushier growth. For stronger aroma, harvest young fresh leaves before flowering.
