Planting and care
  • Germination from large, easily handled seeds is rapid, and blooms should appear within a few weeks of sowing.
  • When you water marigolds, allow the soil to dry somewhat between watering, then water well, then repeat the process.
  • The densely double flower heads of the African marigolds tend to rot in wet weather.
  • Do not water marigolds from overhead.
  • Water at the base of the plant.

 

Sow them directly into the garden once the soil is warm, or start seeds indoors about a month to 6 weeks before the last spring-frost date.

Sunlight Marigolds need lots of sunshine (at least six hours of direct sunlight) and do well with year round warm to hot weather
Watering Water marigolds the first 10 to 12 days after transplanting bedding plants into the garden.
Soil Though they grow in almost any soil, marigolds thrive in moderately fertile, well-drained soil.
Temperature Protect this plant from frosts and low temperatures.
Fertilizer Avoid fertilizing the plants. Marigolds thrive in poor soil and fertilizer often creates lush, rich foliage with few blooms.
