in the ground
Sow in pots or directly in the ground, after the last frosts. Thin out every 10 to 15 cm. Staggered sowing will prolong flowering. September sowings, possible in mild regions, should be protected from frost over winter with a winter veil, for flowering in early spring.
Don't wet the foliage too much to avoid powdery mildew. Marigolds reseed spontaneously.
