Bright marigolds are now adorning nurseries, office-courts or home balconies. The marigold flowering season lasts quite a long time from winter to spring. The trees are full of bright flowers till about March. However, the biggest enemy of marigolds is insects.
Insects easily attack the flowers and leaves and make the plant pale. Learn how to care for marigolds if you want to get lots of flowers throughout the season.

Always keep the marigold plant in a place where it gets sunlight. This plant should be kept in the sun for at least 6 hours.

Marigold plants do not need to be watered too much. However, it is important that the soil is moist. Water the plant only when the soil is dry.

Spider mites cause the most damage to marigold plants. If you see something like this, you need to take immediate action. You can use neem oil mixed with water regularly or you can get any other insecticide from the market.

If you want to get beautiful flowers, you need to fertilize the plant. Cut the dried banana peel into small pieces. Mix it with dried egg shells. Mix cow dung fertilizer or vermicompost fertilizer with these two ingredients and mix it with the soil in the pot. You will get calcium, potassium and magnesium from this fertilizer. The plant will grow a lot of buds and flowers if you apply the fertilizer. #marigold #flower
