Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

Calendula seeds generally do not require any special preparation before planting.

Sowing:

Direct sow seeds outdoors after the last frost date in spring.
Alternatively, start seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost for earlier blooms.
Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in well-prepared soil.

Germination:

Keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which usually occurs within 7-14 days.

Transplanting:

If starting indoors, transplant seedlings to the garden after they develop their first true leaves and after the last frost.
Space plants 12-18 inches apart to allow for proper air circulation and growth.

Care and Maintenance:

Water plants regularly, especially during dry periods, but avoid overwatering.
Deadhead spent flowers to prolong blooming and encourage new flowers.
Mulch around plants to help retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Calendula is generally low-maintenance but may benefit from occasional pruning to maintain shape and encourage bushiness.

Happy Gardening!
