How to promote the germination of peppermint seeds

Prepare cold boiled water with a water temperature of about 40 ℃, pour in the seeds of mint, and soak for about 5 hours. Attention, let the water cool naturally.

Take out the soaked peppermint seeds and cut the plastic bottle. Generally, start from the middle and divide it into two parts. Keep the cylindrical end. The height is about 5cm.

Place the cylindrical plastic bottle on the top of the plate and put it upright. Spread a layer of tissue paper on the top, and the tissue paper should be hung on the plate. Put the seeds of peppermint on the tissue paper and cover it with a layer of tissue paper.

Pour water on the plate, so that the water can be absorbed by the tissue paper, keeping it moist, but not too wet.

Basically, it can be seeded after germination. Because the seeds of peppermint are relatively small, it can be sown in a simple way. But we need to pay attention to the survival rate.
