Comment on I got tired of killing my cactus so now I plant mint

That’s a damn great choice if you killed a cactus. You probably overwatered it, but mint loves water. Water 2~4 times a week and you should be good.

It will quickly overgrow your pot, but resist the temptation to plant it on the ground. It isn’t like mint doesn’t thrive on soil, it does a bit too well… killing everything in its path.

I used the peanut butter pot, support the extreme cheapskates.

I know that feeling. Apple trees in margarine pot:

the need to use the peanut butter pot was because I don’t have a yard haha, it is a wonderful adventure to start gathering all the plastic that has a minimum depth and make holes with a wire and get intoxicated by the smell of burning plastic, the extreme tacans leave their life and soul for the garden, pd: what beautiful plants

  This is one of those joys of gardening that books and online tutorials definitively do not talk about.
