Planting & Growing Instructions

When to Plant:

Start seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost date in your area or sow directly outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. These early-blooming marigold seeds thrive in warm weather and full sunlight.

How to Plant:

  1. Start Indoors: Sow seeds ¼ inch deep in seed-starting trays filled with well-drained soil. Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged, and place the tray in a sunny spot or under grow lights.
  2. Transplant Outdoors: When seedlings are 2-3 inches tall and all frost danger has passed, transplant them into your garden or containers, spacing plants 6-8 inches apart.
  3. Direct Sowing: If planting directly in the garden, sow seeds ¼ inch deep and cover lightly with soil. Thin seedlings as they grow to ensure proper spacing.

Sun & Water Requirements:

  • Sunlight: Marigolds thrive in full sun but can tolerate partial shade in hotter climates.
  • Watering: Water moderately, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Once established, marigolds are drought-tolerant and require minimal watering.

Blooming & Maintenance:

  • Bloom Time: Expect vibrant blooms from early summer through fall. Regular deadheading (removing spent flowers) will encourage more blooms and keep the plants looking tidy.
  • Pest Control: Marigolds naturally deter pests like aphids, making them excellent companion plants in vegetable gardens.
