Planting and care

Two solutions are available to you: Sow the Marigolds in March-April under shelter, and transplant them at a good distance (20 to 25 cm (8 to 10in) in your flower beds, 5 to 6 weeks after sowing. This sowing can be done in buckets for easier transplanting or in classic seed trays. Ideally, a temperature close to 18 to 20°C (64.4 to 68°F) is required for good seed germination. Germination usually takes about fifteen days. Alternatively, sow them directly in place at the end of April or early May, then thin out the ranks 5 weeks later to leave them enough space to grow. In the early stages, keep a close eye on your seedlings as snails are fond of these young plants. By removing faded flowers, you will promote their renewal.
