How to grow Marigold Super Her Deep Yellow seeds

Choose Your Planting Method

• Indoors: Start seeds 3–4 weeks before your last frost date.
• Outdoors: Sow directly after the last frost, once the soil has warmed.

Prepare Your Materials

• Seed-starting trays or pots (if indoors)
• Well-draining potting mix
• Spray bottle for misting

Sowing the Seeds

• Sow 1/4 inch deep and cover lightly with fine soil — darkness helps marigold seeds sprout.
• No special pre-treatment is needed.

Provide the Right Conditions

• Light: Bright light after emergence; keep covered during germination.
• Temperature: 70–75°F (21–24°C) for fast, even germination.

Germination

• Seedlings usually emerge in 4–7 days.
• Once sprouted, give strong light and allow the surface to dry slightly between waterings.

Transplanting

• Move seedlings out after all frost danger has passed.
• Harden off for 7–10 days first.
• Space plants 8–12 inches apart for the dwarf Super Hero habit.

Care Tips

• Sun: Full sun — at least 6 hours a day.
• Water: Moderate; avoid soggy soil. African marigolds handle short dry spells once established.
• Fertilizer: Average fertility is enough; too much nitrogen makes leaves at the expense of flowers.
• Deadhead spent blooms regularly to keep new flowers coming.

Bloom Time:

First blooms about 60–70 days from sowing; flowers summer through frost.
