Light Requirements

  • Prefers full sun – at least 6 hours daily

  • Can tolerate partial shade but flowers best with maximum light

Watering

  • Water when the top 2–3cm of soil feels dry

  • Keep soil moderately moist, especially during hot weather

  • Avoid overwatering – marigolds dislike soggy soil

Feeding

  • Feed every 3–4 weeks with a balanced liquid fertilizer

  • Avoid overfeeding – too much nitrogen may reduce flowering

Deadheading & Maintenance

  • Deadhead spent blooms regularly to encourage more flowers

  • Trim leggy or overgrown stems to maintain a compact shape

  • Remove any yellowing leaves or damaged growth

Pests & Problems

  • Generally pest-resistant

  • Can occasionally attract:

    • Aphids

    • Spider mites

Marigolds are also known to repel garden pests, making them a great companion plant.
