Abstract
Peppermint (Mentha piperita L.) is a herbaceous plant belonging to the genus Mentha and family Lamiaceae. Peppermint essential oil is used in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and flavoring. To evaluate the growth and quality of peppermint essential oil grown in polyhouse in Ho Chi Minh City, a two-factor experiment was arranged in a completely randomized block design (RCBD). The two factors were the harvesting method (C) and the density (M). The results showed that the optimal planting density was 25 plants/m2 (20 cm × 20 cm) when it combined with harvesting twice, resulting in 467,2 leaves and a fresh yield of 3,492 kg/ha. The essential oil composition was found to be 83.3% Menthol, 7.2% Pulegone, and 6.4% Isomenthone when harvested for the first time, and a yield of 3,314 kg/ha, 365.4 leaves, 83.7% Menthol, 6.8% Pulegone, and 4.7% Isomenthone when harvested for the second time.
