I don't think everyone leaves with the next best salary upgrade if you pay fair. Leveling up a junior should be rewarded in time. Part of the mentoring is to teach them how to fight for your upgrade, right?
Good culture is good, but no culture fits all personalities.
In the end you probably have to accept that some portion of mentees will leave and try to minimize the rate.
What I would be afraid of that grown up juniors may get stuck in their learning environment and remain junior for way too long.
