    What you'll need

    • Organic potting soil (tanah organik)
    • Neem insect killer

    All available here at the nursery.

Something wrong?

  • Fine webbing, speckled leaves

    Spider mites in hot, dry weather. Hose the leaves and spray with diluted neem oil.

  • Fewer flowers

    Remove faded flowers. Marigolds only live a season, so replace old plants.
