Marigolds are native to Mexico and are distributed throughout China, growing at altitudes of 1150-1480 meters. Marigolds are widely used in flower bed landscaping because of their beautiful appearance and have attracted the love of many people because of their beauty. Marigolds enjoy sunlight, and adequate sunlight can make marigolds grow better; marigolds are suitable for growing in warm environments, but the temperature should not be too high, as high or low temperatures can have adverse effects on the growth of marigolds; marigolds are not strict about soil requirements. Next, let's understand the cultivation methods of marigolds from the aspects of sunlight, temperature, and soil selection.
1. Sunlight
Marigolds are sun-loving plants that enjoy sunlight. In the process of cultivation, marigolds can be placed on the balcony or in a room with plenty of sunlight. In summer, it is important to control the intensity and duration of sunlight. In the strong summer light, marigolds should be shaded to prevent the scorching of their flowers and leaves. When sunlight is insufficient in winter, additional lighting should be provided to promote the growth and development of marigolds.
2. Temperature
Marigolds thrive in warm and humid environments, with the most suitable temperature being 15-25°C, and the suitable temperature during the flowering period being 18-20°C. They can be kept outdoors in spring and autumn. In summer, high temperatures, and in winter, low temperatures, require moving marigolds indoors to avoid scorching from high temperatures and frost damage from low temperatures.
3. Soil
Marigolds are not strict about soil requirements. It is sufficient to choose a loose soil with good drainage and breathability, such as sandy soil or garden soil. This type of soil has good drainage, which can prevent waterlogging in the pot caused by excessive watering and effectively avoid root rot caused by waterlogging.
