Growing Mint:
👉Cutting of the sprig should be done carefully. In between two stem-branch junctions.
👉Make a slant cutting, the sprig to be planted as earlier as possible. This is applicable if you get a cutting from a runner. If it is not a runner, then the sprig should be placed in a transparent glass of water. Apply little bit of saliva, cinnamon powder and aloevera gel to the tip of the cutting before you place them in the water glass. Also add few drops of honey into the water glass for proper root growth. It should be kept as it is until the root emerges. It will take 4-5 days for proper rooting. No need to change the water in the glass each day. If you can see the roots emerging then its time to transplant.
👉The planting medium should be taken into consideration. If it's a potting it is very easy to propagate otherwise, the soil should be a well drained soil.
👉Initially, leaves will wither and after that fresh leaves emerge.

👉Apply moringa leaf spray once in a week...and home made compost once in a week...greens take up more nutrition from the soil or potting mix.
Slowly things will fall into place...
👉It will grow in shade also. Rate of growth is high with sunlight.
I hope this helps...
