To much water I think

Too much water and too large a pot holding water the plants can’t use up. Too little light. Poor air circulation slowing the water evaporation process. Pests eating the roots.

Let the soil dry out between watering. Mint plants act like weeds. Too much TLC and they can’t handle it. Let it dry out. Slowly start to put it in full sunlight or add a grow light for 10 hours. Fertilize about once a month with 50% diluted fertilizer.

The mint in the picture is old. I only give it cow manure in spring. I don’t water unless it droops and no rain is forecasted. It lives on rainwater and dew from the shed’s roof.

I had a green worm eating my mint last summer! I found him and got rid of him and all was well with my mint again.
