Marigolds do best in rich, well-draining soil that remains moist, though once established can be somewhat drought tolerant as well.

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.COVERAGE: Packet: Up to 80 Sq. FtUSING MARIGOLDS AS COMPANION PLANTS Marigolds are a great companion plant for pretty much all garden plants, blooming or edible. Their roots contain thiopene which is toxic to certain nematodes.
