Planting Instructions:
Soil Preparation: Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil. African marigolds thrive in fertile, loamy soil but can tolerate various soil types.
Sowing Depth: Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep and 12-18 inches apart, depending on the desired density and growth habit. Space rows 18-24 inches apart.
Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist during the germination period and throughout the growing season. African marigolds prefer consistent moisture but can tolerate drought once established.
Thinning: Thin seedlings to the recommended spacing once they have several sets of true leaves to ensure good air circulation and room for growth.
Deadheading: Remove spent flowers regularly to promote continuous blooming and prevent seed formation, encouraging a longer flowering season.
Fertilization: African marigolds benefit from a balanced organic fertilizer applied according to package instructions to support healthy growth and abundant blooms.
Pest Management: While African marigolds repel many pests, monitor for any insect issues and use organic pest control methods as needed.
Mulching: Apply a layer of organic mulch around the plants to conserve moisture, regulate soil temperature, and suppress weeds.
