Using mint leaves in water?

[Stanovich420]

Hi guys/gals
Had a question in my mind for a while now,and since i can't find an answer,decided to put it here...
We all now beneficials from Mint as a plant.
I usually put in my drinking water some fresh mint stems+leaves,and usually give it an hour before drinking...
What if i put some mint in water before watering my plants???
Pros/Cons???
Any info appreciated

You mentioned it, TAG you're it. I eagerly await the results of your experiment.

From common sense i think it should benefit,but would love to be sure...

Tag - a kids game where one is "It" and must touch (tag) another player who is attempting to elude them.

So far found only pros
Found nutrient value for 3g of leaves,and it looks astonishing what i got...
Tough it's for consumed,but in my case they would only sit in water for few hours.
So only fraction would stay in water.
So i think that is possible to use this method to keep pests away...maybe...

Did little experiment on plain tap water in cups,one with mint(over 15leaves+stems) and one without.
Meassured ph @7.2 both in beggining.
One with mint(2-3hrs later) ph7.6
One without ph7.8

I will give it a test run on my next grow...or maybe on my clone if it's gonna survive
But for now will keep experimenting how consistent readings will be(ph-ppm)
