I had filled a pot with seedlings, so the nursery pots I found at the side of the road came in handy today. I split them into their own pots which I will give away to friends and family once they grow larger.

My goal is to grow marigolds from seed for the first time to enjoy their summer blooms and repel pests from my veggies.

    I have found marigold seeds tend to have consistent germination (80-90%). I start with one seed, and after week I pull the duds and replant, repeating as needed.

      Thanks for the tip. I noticed they germinated quickly with most seeds sprouting whuch was a pleasant surprise.
