More Marigold Info and How to Plant
In addition to the cheery flowers that marigolds
bring to your garden, they also attract beneficial insects, such as ladybugs,
hoverflies and parasitic mini-wasps, that prey on garden pests. 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 Approach
To 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
Rows 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 Tips
Marigolds 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.
SEED STORING
- Store
your seeds in a cool, dry and dark location. - Most
seeds have a long shelf life, but heat and moisture will cut that life
short. - Dedicate
a drawer or cabinet to storing your seeds where you can also house your
gardening journal close at hand for dreaming, planning and preparing.
