GROWING INSTRUCTIONS

Marigolds are extremely common and popular in garden beds, for good reason. They are quick-growing annuals with bountiful pom-pom blooms of multiple colours. Known to deter many critters and pests with their fragrance, marigolds also pair well with many commonly grown fruits and vegetables. They come in a variety of shapes, colours and sizes, but all fall under the aster family.

To get a head start and ensure early blooms, start indoors six to eight weeks before the last frost. Seeds sown directly will also germinate quickly, especially self-sown seeds from the previous year’s flowers.

To start inside, sow seeds into a flat or individual pots with moist soil. Lightly cover the seeds and keep them in a warm spot. Cover the containers with plastic wrap to create a humidity dome. In about five days, when seeds germinate, plastic can be removed. At this point, the sprouts will need at least four to five hours of light per day, be it from a sunny window or grow lights.

Keep the seedlings moist and warm. Water from the bottom if possible to prevent young flowers from damping off. When the danger of frost has passed and seedlings are producing a lot of foliage, they’re ready to harden off and to be prepared for transplanting.

Marigolds are at their healthiest and produce loads of flowers when they receive full sun, while they tend to get leggy and weak in the shade. Marigolds aren’t picky when it comes to their growing medium. They seem to do fine in fair soil as long as it’s not too acidic. Early on, young marigolds should be watered consistently. As the season progresses, they should become more drought tolerant, but will still give the most flowers when watered regularly.

These flowers are true heat-loving annuals and will only slow down in the excessive dead heat of summer. In cooler regions, they will bloom steadily throughout the season. Early in the season, initial flower buds can be pinched out to promote a bushier base that will flower like crazy later in the year. Stay on top of deadheading spent blossoms. This will keep the plant flowering strongly and providing vibrant colours through the fall season. 

Marigolds are low maintenance, do well in containers or garden beds and make a wonderful addition to any cut flower arrangement. 

QUICK FACTS

- Marigolds, both African and French are native to Mexico and Guatemala. They were brought to Europe and Africa in the late 1500s and became popular in American and Canadian gardens by the 1800s.

- African marigolds (Tagetes erecta) are quite resistant to heat and draughts. They quickly naturalized in Northern Africa and the British erroneously named the plant after the continent.

- French marigolds, (Tagetes patula), which the British called ‘’Rose of the Indies,’’ are known to have smaller flowers and a longer blooming season while being more resistant to rain than their African counterpart.

- In Spain, the flowers were often placed on the altar of the Virgin Mary and eventually became known as Mary’s Gold, hence the name.

- Marigolds have long been popular in India where they are known as the ‘’friendship flower.’’

- Marigold seeds will remain viable for 2 years if stored in a cool, dark place, ideally between 4 and 10⁰C. After that, the germination rate may start to go down.

Very comfy
Size: X-Large, Color: White
I'm a size US Mens 14 with huge calves. Finding comfortable crew socks can be somewhat difficult. These are extremely comfortable, very stretchy and soft. Very worth the price.

I use these exclusively for when I'm hiking, cycling and walking ( exercising )
Size: X-Large, Color: Black
5.7.2019 Update: I have probably five packs of 3 of these socks. Can't explain it but recent pairs I've been using have lasted longer than previous two packs ( 6 socks )... So I'm going to get some more... They are my #1 go to sock for cycling, hiking, climbing, walking ( serious, training, speed, distance )... 10.30.19: I use these exclusively for when I'm hiking, cycling anqd walking ( exeqrcising )... They are light, comfortable, keep feet dry, cool & comfortable... They don't shift around on feet. They stay put once put on and running, climbing or cycling shoes are put on and laced up or ratched... I do a lot of hill climbing and also use on terrain where there's lots of long periods ( hours ) going up & hours going down... They don't appear to be very durable, get holes in toe or holes in heels, but 3 pack is relatively inexpensive so I continue to buy them. I do not use them for everyday casual wear because they would wear out very quickly compared to other similar sockets...

These socks are just OK. One arrived with a hole (easily sewn up, but kind of bummed about that). I prefer the Under Armour Resistor socks - they have support built into the socks that you actually can feel, and they were same price for 6 pairs!
