Marigold plants are grown in some areas to deter mosquito's
Marigold plants are also planted in some farmlands as they secrete chemicals from their roots which deter eel-worm (nematodes) which would otherwise infect healthy plants.
Insect-pollinated flowers may still be pollinated by wind as a backup method to ensure successful pollination in case insect activity is limited. Wind can help transfer pollen between flowers when insects are scarce or when weather conditions are unfavorable for insect pollination. This redundancy increases the chances of successful pollination and seed production for the plant.
Marigold can be used as an indicator for soil health and pest presence in gardens. When planted, marigolds release compounds that deter nematodes and certain pests, signaling a healthier soil ecosystem. Additionally, if marigold leaves show signs of discoloration or damage, it may indicate nutrient deficiencies or pest infestations in the surrounding plants. Monitoring their growth and condition can provide valuable insights into the overall health of your garden.
