use 2 inch cuttings of firm growth. apply 0.1% IBA (Rooting hormone) stick in well drained soil & mist rooting should occure in 1-3 weeks

Thanks for the info. Any need to place the container in a sealed plastic bag to keep humidity up as I've heard before?

WATCH OUT, some rooting hormones are not for food use, ask the garden center people which are for food

John, most mints root very readily without rooting hormone. You can follow georgez5il's advice (above), but if humidity is sufficient you needn't worry about misting, or you could put the tray in a plastic bag with a couple of holes in it (keep out of direct sun). I've rooted mints many times in plain water. Gary

I've rooted mint from a sprig that was put in an iced tea. Take a piece about 3" long and strip 2" of leaves from the bottom and place in a glass with some water and keep out of direct sun. In about a week you should see some roots

I have had success by just putting the stems in the ground. just outside.. watering them everyday. Mint is very easy to grow does not need a rooting thing...May be it will speed the growth. But I avoid the rooting stuff on my food plants

Just be sure to keep the mint plants inside a raised bed or somewhere you can control the growth. Here in South Carolina, it is a very invasive plant. We usually grow ours in window boxes.

Yeah Mint You Want some? Cause I have tons!!!! I have a mint patch in my yard that I have mowed over, starved for water, walked on etc.. etc.. the stuf wont die.. I live in the mountains and we have harsh winters every spring my patch comes back up I harvest it now that its contained. putting up a small bed in full sun in your yard is easy just prepare your soil spread seeds evey year after that it will always come back and you can share my problem of too much mint LOL.. as far as cuttings go yeah you can but what a hassle seeds sprout in like a week!! good luck I too like mojitos and I make greek mint sauce for lamb a lot as well as tea etc.. I even blend my tobacco sometimes 50 50 mix with dried mint..
