If you sow the marigolds as a cover crop and plow them under before planting, they will repel harmful nematodes.And there is some evidence that marigolds ward off cabbage worms from cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli and Brussels sprouts. The Naturalistic ApproachTo mimic nature, strew seeds randomly throughout the vegetable garden, in the open spaces in front, in back and in between vegetables. Plant seedlings in the same random, or naturalistic way, in clusters here and there throughout the bed. This method works best with just one color of marigold, which will unify the entire vegetable bed. Use as many marigolds plants or seeds as you need to cover all the empty spaces between your vegetables.Create a Border – Marigolds are beneficial to your Vegetable GardenRows of marigolds around the edges of your vegetable garden present a more formal or orderly feel. Strew the seeds or place the plants in a single row, or create a more lush look with a double or triple row of flowers if you have the space. With this kind of planting, you can choose a random assortment of colors within the same marigold variety or go with a single color.Planting TipsMarigolds require full sun, at least six hours a day. They may need less water than your vegetables, so water them directly only when the soil becomes dry, and let them gather water indirectly from the nearby vegetables. If you plant from seeds, thin the plants when they are 1 to 2 inches tall and leave them 10 to 12 inches apart.HOW TO GROW MARIGOLDS FROM SEEDWHEN TO PLANT MARIGOLD SEEDSDirect sow Marigold seeds after all threat of frost has passed - it's recommended that you wait approximately 1-2 weeks after the final frost date. Marigolds can also be sown indoors approximately 50-60 days before your final frost.WHERE TO PLANT MARIGOLD SEEDSMarigolds are tolerant of most types of soil, and enjoy warm, Full Sun conditions. Marigolds do best in rich, well draining soil that remains moist, though once established can be somewhat drought tolerant as well. If planted in cool, or moist locations, Marigolds are susceptible to powdery mildew.HOW TO PLANT MARIGOLD SEEDSSow Marigold seeds directly onto the surface of the soil and firmly compress. Don't cover your seeds, as Marigolds require sunlight in order to germinate.HOW TO CARE FOR MARIGOLDSOnce planted, Marigolds require very little by way of care. Typically, you only need to water manually if the soil has gotten dry or dusty to the touch, or if it's been more than 2 weeks since any sort of natural rainfall. You can increase your blooms significantly by deadheading your spent blooms. Dried, spent blooms can be stored in a dry, cool location that gets minimal exposure to sunlight, and if planted, the seeds in the seed heads can produce additional marigolds the following year.WE SHIP FAST &FREE!
