![4 Flowers That REPEL INSECT PESTS I'm Planting NOW [And 1 To Avoid]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/hjoQUpdMads/mqdefault.jpg)
I'm disabled so I garden with grow bags. I tuck a couple marigolds in each bag. Adds color and beauty to my garden. And I dry them and have marigold tea all winter.
Thank you, I don't know why I wasn't thinking about drying them
Thank you for teaching us about marigolds. Never knew you could eat flower petals. I am going to start using them in my dishes.
Shalom Doug and Stacey....
Me and my wife have been watching you all for 4 yrs now....we want to do what you all are doing, and we finally have taken baby steps.. we purchased RV... We moved from NC to Arkansas just 2 months ago and trying to purchase a few acres and you all have really shown us a lot... blessings to you...
Awesome and shalom
Great ideas for marigold's
Welcome to Arkansas! I'm an hour east of Little Rock.
@@tkomla I'm in batesville arkansas..thank you much....I love it here, just not the humidity lol 🤣🤣
In terms of gardening I may be wrong. But you was better off in NC .
Nice weather for Peanuts and many other things that only growth on warmer weathers .
I think Marigold and Dandelions are the two most overlooked medicinal flowers in our gardens. IMHO
I heartily agree with you.
My kids have been helping every spring to collect dandelions for jelly. We love it.
I can’t wait to start cooking with my marigolds ❤️❤️❤️
DANDELIONS????
@@khamir49 Could you; please, expand on your question.
What are the dandelions used for? I thought they were just edible
Joshua Vazquez dandelion root tea is good for decongestant the liver. Good detox.
I love a yellow Marigold to keep the bugs away. This extra info about all they can do is so helpful
Your garden is beautiful... I absolutely love it!!! And also I love your channel. I’m always learning new and interesting things. Thank you Doug and Stacy for these videos. I can binge watch your channel all day everyday and never get bored!
I love grated ginger and marigold in a tea and delicious and relaxing great on the gut.
Is there something affordable that you can recommend to purify drinking water? Thank you. I really enjoy your videos.
Kathleen , people say moringa seeds do
Sounds good!
Stressed out day. I watch you guys and it goes away. Thanks for being here. Can't wait to be out on our land.
Agree! Relaxing and informative videos
On one gardening channel they said marrigolds also mask the smell of when like zuchinis vines break , which evidently attracts the bugs that eat your vines , vine borers I think but they said marigolds mask that oder that draws in the bad bugs so it's a great way if getting rid of garden pests organically too. Thank you ❤️
I knew Marigolds kept pests out of the garden but I did NOT know you could eat them! Thank you!
I don’t understand why people would give this video a thumbs down? It is informative and full of worthy contents.
Haters... just jealousy... move on not worth your time. 🤗
They are stupid haters! Just outright mean!
When I watch RUclips videos. I’m looking for information. And when it’s three minutes into the video before any information is given, I usually skip to the next video.
That being said. GORGEOUS farm, and stay on point. Five and a half minutes before marigolds are talked about
Probably because it took over 3min for her to start talking and over 5 minutes before she started talking about the flower....
@@kmsand5905 amen?
I never knew that merigolds were edible. Thank you, Stacy for covering herbs and their uses like you do.
I learned more about the values of marigolds here: I wondered about the stems, but she says they are bitter? Note: I've over fertilized my Marigolds, and they are not blooming: I learned that Marigolds prefer poor soil in order to bloom: and I trimmed mine back too. I hope they bloom soon, so I can try lots of these ideas!
I didn't know either, been growing for a few years.
In México we make a beverage with marigolds using cinnamon, raw carne sugar and "masa" ( nixtamalized corn) mainly consume in " día de muertos", also in tamales and soups
Love learning from these two. They are so giving of themselves. Big hugs to Stacy & Doug 🤗
@Poison Ivy You are aptly named!!
She has had a washer for years. Does what she loves.
@Poison Ivy They have a generator they use with a wringer washer. Look up Laundry Day. Also the hose did work but ran slow because of low pressure. She is NOT a VICTIM. You see what you want to.
Here's a yummy Raw recipe for Marigold Bars (Adapted from Ascension Kitchen's recipe):
Servings: 8 Time: 20 mins
1 heaped cup marigold petals, plus extra for garnish
¾ cup grated carrot
½ cup shredded coconut
½ cup almond meal
1 cup almonds
¼ cup goji berries
¼ cup sunflower seeds
¼ cup pumpkin seeds
2 tablespoons chia seeds
1 teaspoon vanilla paste/essence
½ cup coconut butter
¼ cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon white miso
1 tablespoon orange zest, plus extra for garnish
Place the coconut butter and maple syrup in a jug, and rest it over a bath of hot water or on a hot stove to soften or liquefy.
Roughly chop the whole almonds in the food processor. You want to have a few chunks in there because you are going to pulse together two more times, and you don't want it turn into almond butter.
Add all other dry ingredients, except the flower petals and goji berries, and pulse till combined.
Pour the coconut butter and maple syrup into the mixture, and add the vanilla paste, pulse again till combined.
Add the flower petals and goji berries at the end for one final quick pulse.
Transfer mixture to an 8 inch square cake tin lined with parchment paper, use the back of a spoon or clean hands and another piece of parchment paper to flatten the surface. Press slivered almonds and more marigold leaves over the top to decorate, and perhaps some extra orange zest.
Freeze to set, cut into 8 large bars to serve.
Enjoy!
Thx for taking the time to write this lovely recipe for us
@@VK-qo1gm You're so welcome. :-)
@@VK-qo1gm My pleasure
Wow - the nutrition in this recipe is amazing. Thx for posting
Wowee- this recipe sounds fantastic - I look forward to trying it out. Thank you for sharing your recipe!
My grandma would make Nasturtium leaf pesto. She also used the flowers of marigold and ‘’Nasties’’, as she called them, in bulgar wheat cold salads. Because of her I always grow Nasturtium and Marigolds in my garden. I’m definitely going to make everything you mentioned in this video with the flowers I grow from marigold seeds I saved from last year. Great video.
A few decades ago we would need to source this information at a library. Thank you for taking the time and your effort to make this video.
This is great to know. Didn't know humans could eat the petals. I have heard feeding marigolds to chicken feed makes the yolks more yellow as well. Thanks for the info.
THANK YOU! I JUST LEARNT SOMETHING NEW! I ONLY PLANT MERIGOLDS FOR THE BEAUTY OF IT, BUT NOW I KNOW IT CAN BE EATEN ALSO..LOVELY.MAY GOD BLESS YOU AS YOU CONTINUE TO GROW YOUR BEAUTIFUL GARDEN, AND SHARING WITH OTHERS!!!THANKS AGAIN
Luetin and Zeaxanthin , two supplements for aging eyes , are extracted from marigolds. Thanks. Didn't know it could be eaten raw ...
How do you know that Monir? They always advertise tomatoes as the source when they advertise supplements for those nutrients. I always like to learn
@@catw5294 orange colored plants are good for your eyes 😊
Great to know!! My eyes are so bad!
What part of the plant is used?
I just bought marigolds this year to plant for their health benefits and to ward off pest. I bet they would be good in breads and very beautiful. You could also freeze some in ice cubes then drop some in a cold ginger tea, green tea, or any tea, or water. Thanks for sharing the video. 😊
I *love* the idea of freezing in ice Cubes! Thanks!
Check to make sure which variety of marigold can be made into a tea. I found not every type is drinkable.
Always a treat to see, hear and learn from Stacey & Doug. Hugs back!
I love how marigolds reseed themselves. I have fun wondering where they will come up each year. I will try them in tea next!
mine hardly reseed, now I take the blossoms off for tea, since they will not come up as they should :) I save some seeds and start them in pots so I have them again.
Donnette, what zone are you in that they reseed themselves?
@@catw5294 zone 7
@@donnettehenderson2447 Okay you are warmer than me. I know zone 6 you can do that with snap dragons and sometimes in zone 5 where I'm at. Thx for the answer
@@catw5294 yes, snap dragons come back by themselves here too. We are supposed to get a few inches of snow here in the morning which is a little unusual for this time of year.
Having a delightful time learning from Stacy & Doug. So happy to have found this channel!
I've been watching you two since last year and have learned a lot from y'all. Thanks for sharing so much of yourselves and your life. I've made a lot of foods that Stacy showed how to make. I didn't even know what kombucha was until Stacy told and showed how to make it. Plus now I ferment like crazy instead of canning. Thanks Stacy, you're the BEST!!! Thanks Doug you're tops in my book when it comes to all the building and chopping wood, ect... God bless both of you.
That was so informative 👍❤️
Who knew that marigolds have so many wonderful benefits and uses.
I’m excited to try the marigold petals in my eggs, also the tea sounds delightful 💕
I made ghee the other day for the first time - used camp oven with fire brick on a Coleman stove. I am new to preserving and solo appreciate how methodical they are. Some people are disorganized and it hurts my brain cell trying to follow along lol. So, Thank You D&S!!! Inspiring couple, who are willing to try different methods and share both success and fails allowing us to learn with them....
I made ghee in my oven as Stacey showed us. Now my husband will inform me when we are getting low on ghee! He loves it in/on just about everything. 😊 easy and it works!
@@TheKatherine1958 Indians have been using it for more than 2000 years. Good to see ppl waking up to it. Its easier to preserve it than butter
Stacy, I love seeing all the flowers in your garden. The pollinators must love it!
I always have had marigolds in my garden by my tomatoes to help with pests...never used the petals in anything. So now I am going to try ..ty:))
Dinner looked scrumptious! I love Marigolds in my garden, so many benefits to them. Thanks for sharing Stacy. Blessings
These flowers are going to be on my list to plant. I love how you show us flowers to grow that we can eat. Thank you so much for all the information. Cant wait to grow them and eat them. Love you guys. Love your videos.
One of my favorites Stacy I also love how they hang on all the way up to the first frost!!! Life is good. 🥰
I am so pleased to learn about marigolds in meals... I'm going to give this a try with rice, that looks so very good!.. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for all y’all do! I learn something from every video. Don’t always comment. Much WV Love and Many Prayers! 💙💛🙏
Hello Stacey,
When my house burned in 2013, all of my flower beds around the house were destroyed when we rebuilt the house. We moved back in to our hose in October of 2014. My father passed away in January of 2015, he left me a small inheritance which is what I used to rebuild my front walkway and flower beds. I had decided when I was selecting plant for it that I would only put edible plants in it. I figured if I’m going to put the effort into my flowers that I would get not only the beauty of them , but the medicinal and nutritional value as well. My dad always had flowers growing in our yard, so this was also a great way for me to honor his memory as well.
Love marigolds, there colors are so pretty. Never once thought about using them in food. Thank for the info. Your garden is stunning.
I began learning about marigolds in late 2019 and have been amazed by them since! But I hadn't heard of eating them...Amazing!!! Thank you
This year is my first successful season with lots of marigolds! Gonna try the addition to taco night as well as tea! Thanks for the info! Kristy in West Plains! LHS ‘86😃🇺🇸🥓
Love all your plant knowledge Stacy! I have learned so much from you! Thanks for sharing!
Wow, just watching this 2 years after it originally posted. I'm so glad I found this, I have fallen in love with Marigold flowers and now find that I can eat them!! Mind blowing and I can't wait to try. Stacy you gave so many suggestions. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you Ms. Stacy! This video reminded me about the wonderful benefits of Marigold flowers.
This is a great idea! I'm going to try these recipes. Thanks Stacy another great nugget😍 God bless you and Doug 💖👼🙏💞
That's great to know, my property is covered with marigolds, I plant them everywhere. I've saved bags and bags of seeds.
This is my first year saving the seeds. Excited to plant them next spring!
Karen Waitley would you send me some seeds? P.O. Box 230 Lumber Bridge NC 28357 Sarah Oxendine
Me too. I have them everywhere.
My granddaughter and I save large jar full of seeds f next year 💖😍
Every year 💖
I didn't know you could eat them or make tea with them! I do believe I will be planting more marigolds from now on!! Thank you Stacy 😊
Stacy....Thank You...... I think I wore a smile across my face during this video...
I now remember my Grandmother using Flowers in dishes... You bring much needed joy....Bless you!
This has always been my dream to live off grid grow and make everything. Just the way God intended! Where do you find a man like that is my question? You guys are Absolutely awesome! Thanks for all the wonderful things you're teaching us!!
Girl, I'm going to have to start watching you more !! You teach me so much and I love your videos !! Thank you so very much !!❤🥀🥀🥀
I had a gardner friend that showed me how he put marigolds in with his tomatoes an by his leeks an radishes an a couple other plants he had growing .i miss his knowledge on things he used to show me.he passed away from a really bad cancer a few years ago.Ialways plant marigolds now cause of him.and he put enchincia flowers in between some plants too.
My 91 yr old neighbour taught me this too :) She drank a green juice made from her veg every day.
I have a friend like that
What a beautiful way to honor your friend. Perhaps he has come back as a little bee to sit on one of your flowers
@@nicemomasmr I had a tiny butterfly kept flying an sitting on my shirt an everytime I shoo'd it off me it came right back so I took a picture of it.never seen one like it before an then I had two monarch butterflies later on the enchincia flowers an they wouldnt fly away either..and I had a walking stick an it was bright green an it stayed by my porch for three days.never seen a green one only a dark brownish one that would get color of tree bark but never a green one.took picture of that too.an it got on my arm an wouldnt get off.I had to put it back on the plastic orange snow saucer it was on.lol..my friend was like my dad and grandma very smart in gardening an weeds.
May his soul R.I.P.
Marigold was the very first flower and plant I've ever grown all by myself, and having been told they're low maintenance and easy to handle is great. I'm glad I picked out those seeds.
It truly is gold, makes the garden a happy place : )
When I was a kid my mom would get so angry finding me picking petals from her plants and eating them. Especially her hibiscus and African violets.
Lolz that is such a Cool story.
As a child my cousin and a pal of my from class used to each evg get into 1/2 block away into the lilac garden. And play a lot .
Love it!🌿My grandmother(born in 1912)always planted marigolds with tomatoes & peppers. I’ve incorporated them in my raised beds this year, and love the daily reminder of what she taught me. Thank you for all the new ideas!!
I have a new appreciation for marigolds. I think I'll be planting them in the garden this year! Thank you!!
nasturtiums are good to eat. The seeds when green are also spicy
always nice to see Stacy. Oh, you're okay too, Doug. 😂😍
You do such a great job, Stacy! I love the ideas of how to use the marigolds . And I have some in my garden right now!! I've just been enjoying their beauty but not eating them! I like how you keep things simple and healthy. Thank you! :)
I love this and I have so many marigolds I had no idea. HMMM I always learn from you Stacy! You are my nutritionist. Thank you for all your amazing teaching!!
Pansies, day lilies, nasturtiums, borage, calendula too--all wonderful in salads!
What part of the daylily is edible Suzie?
@@catw5294 The whole flower! Like tender lettuce!

Nasturtium plant get soooo big
Awesome info...I'm trying all ur drinks and they're delicious so I have to try this one too...thank you
I love the idea of using flowers in my cooking! ❤❤❤ Thank you for the great idea!
Hello Stacy .... Zone 6 - Yep, Im an extreme gardener, mostly of flowers which I save and dry for various teas ..... marigolds, hibiscus, roses, bee balm,, etc. Love you & Dougs channel and all of the fantastic advice you share!
When I was a little girl, I INSISTED that we plant marigolds in the family garden. I just thought they were so pretty and not fussy. I had no idea that they were so versatile! I'm going to plant some with my peppers and basil!
1st that food IS BEAUTIFUL. Next, that is a crown and C. 🤣 I love how that giant basket just POOF appears out of nowhere ❤️🤣🌱💪❤️
I am definitely going to plant marigolds in my garden next year. I was very excited to hear you state all the plants you suggested because they are the plants I planted in my garden this year. This year was the first garden I planted since my child and teenager years. I am now 61, I remembered a lot of what my grandmother taught me.
I love Marigolds 💛🧡
I haven't tried eating them, but now I will 🤗
In my garden I do put them around my plants to help keep pest away. They do their job and I really enjoy the beauty of them.
And I will be watching this video again to take notes on all the "nuggets" you gave about the amazing MARIGOLD 💛
Thank you Stacy 🧡
Hello from the Cayman Islands wonderful garden thank you for inspiring
👋
need to try them in eggs - been eating a lot of nasturtium flowers and leaves, I love the spicyness.
Stacy I enjoy your channel and the multitude of knowledge that you impart to us. You are a beautiful person. You help a lot of us in lots of ways with your sweetness and positive ness you are a breath of fresh air. Keep doing what you do. Love you
I love watching and looking . learning. U go Stacy & Doug.
Yall have kept me watching for at least 5 ..6 ( Probably more ) yrs now.
I gotta rewatch all the time. So whatever. I love uns. Hoping for a cookbook.
I have a few marigolds and will try some in scrambled eggs tomorrow. thanks!
I keep five or six envelopes with marigolds from the dollar store. No matter where I rest, I put some marigolds out.
We have a little garden in the city and this year I'm fermenting all my veggies and wow I'm sold on fermenting..thank you for sharing your story
I have not tried marigolds but I will this year. Thank you. I love your garden and watching you. My grandkids will love this.
I can't wait to try marigolds in my cooking and tea. They're not that hard to grow either. Thank you!
I like nasturtium but I never considered marigold they usually volunteer in my garden. Oh I am going outside to try them.
Been playing with hibiscus, roses and have lots of marigolds, put them to use this year. Thank you Stacey, learned alot from you and Doug.
This is my first year planting marigolds and we have loved them.
We are planning on doing many flowers next year :)
Hmm, historically I did not like the smell of marigold except when they are eaten by chickens. Next year I will apply your advice throughout my garden. I will also endeavour to eat the flowers. Thanks for the new information. I enjoy your dream garden, great work Stacey👍💪🏾💃😊
I love 'Tagetes tenuifolia', in Germany it is called "Gewürz-Tagetes" (spice-marygold). The petals are much smaller, but the plants smell so delicious! They can be used like the big marigolds against nematodes and other pests. I like them much more than other marigolds, they have a totally different smell and taste. You can use petals and leaves.
Those are sold here as Gem marigolds and come in lemon, tangerine and orange. All have the citrus fragrance to them and fine foliage. One of my favorites for years in my garden.
Because it's a different plant. They use Calendulas.
@@maryelaine-blinstrubchambe6083 Clearly not. They use marigolds as you can see in the video. Calendulas have a different look and different properties, they use marigolds. Calendulas do not have that effect to the pests in the dirt, that is an effect only from marigolds.
@@TheTinkerersWife Yes! That is the plant I meant. Thank you!
@@maryelaine-blinstrubchambe6083 these also smell differently than the marigolds used as bedding plants and have a little different flavor too. Calendula, while in the marigold family is a different genus too. So many lovely beneficial flowers, isn't it wonderful?
Merigold have always been my favorite flower and now I know what I can do with them besides enjoying their beauty, thank you for sharing.
Yay! I love marigolds and I started about 100 plants this year to ring the garden. Now I’m excited to make marigold tea! And rice....yum! Thanks so much!
I’ve recently been coming to the realization that marigolds are my favorite flower, and I didn’t even know all this! So excited to start exploring the news ways to use my marigold plants out on my patio :)
I have been companion plating marigolds in my garden with great success for a couple of years.
Thank you so much for this information. I will surely try them all!
Thanks Stacie! And marigolds are so easy to grow and maintain. I'll try cooking with them and see how it adds flavor to eggs and comfort foods. And the blossoms that dry produce so many seeds!
Marigold plants are great as pest repellents for your garden.
God IS so good, all the time, look at your beautiful beautiful bounty, WOW! Thank you so much for sharing.
Yes absolutely i wrote it down. I have had flowers in a lemon poppyseed chicken salad.
It was delicious. It was back in the 90's when i work in medical records the nurses made it for us all to have a large luncheon together. It was a hit so much so i and others asked for the recipe!
There were dandelions and oddly enough even though they are bitter it was very tasty because of the ingredients worked together it made it perfectly ok.
They made lemon flavoted french bread with a dusting of confectioners sugar then home made lemon poppy seed dressing with grilled diced chicken breast.
Thank you for all your wisdom! I love it!
This is fantastic Stacy! Like you, I always grow lots of marigolds all throughout the garden and I have heard of marigold tea, but I had no idea about these other uses. Thank you for sharing! Your garden is so beautiful.
Wow wow wow! Love the info on using the Marigolds! I’m definitely going to use them! Thank you Stacy! 💜🤗
Thanks Stacy! I bought tiny marigold starts this year and planted them throughout my garden and they are HUGE! I love the idea of adding the petals to rice. Inspired!
Save the seeds for next year!
Yes, I knew that they're beneficial for protecting certain vegetables and I'm adding them to my garden this spring. But I had absolutely no idea that you can eat them. I can't wait to try them. Thanks so much!
I loved this! I am a novice gardener taking over the garden responsibilities from my husband this year, and I had read that marigolds are great companion plants for veggies, so I planted some in all my beds. I had no idea how huge they’d get! Mine are enormous! I love them so much and these tips are fabulous. Thank you!
Marigolds are also natural pest reducers. They have essential oils.
I was hoping she would address the pest issue. Is this true; what pests do they repel? Do they stop little mammals from eating one’s garden?
@@stephenbeacham9717I know that rabbits do not like marigolds. The smell keeps them away.
It’s a common question: Are marigold and calendula the same? The simple answer is no, and here’s why: Although both are members of the sunflower (Asteraceae) family, marigolds are members of the Tagetes genus, which includes at least 50 species, while calendula are members of the Calendula genus, a smaller genus with only 15 to 20 species. You could say the two colorful, sun-loving plants are cousins, but marigold and calendula differences are notable.
Read more at Gardening Know How: Marigold Vs. Calendula - Difference Between Marigolds And Calendulas www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/flowers/marigold/marigold-vs-calendula.htm
Bless you this video drove me insane I was screaming at it.
Thank you! This is a common confusion. Two different genus. The common Marigold of the Tagetes genus is commonly known as Pot Maarigold. Because people would add them to their cooking pot. Calendula is know more for it's medicinal qualities. I love both of the plants and flowers, but use each of them in completely different ways.
So the pot marigolds are not medicinal?
She didn't say they were the same.
Wow- this info is great - I will definitely look further into reading more via the link you listed. Thank you.
Great flower and ideas. You have inspired me to use marigold in my cooking. And you make it look easy. Thank so much.
I'm super excited to try all these new to me ways to use marigolds. I'm starting several indoors this year so that they will bloom earlier.
The day lily pods are awesome in a salad. The pods will cure insomnia.
Wanda Turner Didn’t know this! Do you just make a tea with the pods as Stacy did with the marigolds?🥰
I have always done the same tons of marigolds for the reason they are great companion plants and they just damn well make me smile. And have put them in salads through the summer along with other edible flowers, borage, tiny pansies etc. But this year I also grew some chamomile for the first time and started saving the flowers, learned a lot from you on that, but I also started drying the marigold petals. So I have mixed them with the chamomile. So will have tea over the winter. Apparently the combination of the two is extremely good for insomnia. So I will soon find out. The dried mixture of the two looks so beautiful in the jar as well. So sad it is garden season coming to an end but it is also so beautiful in many ways.
That's why I love your channel I learn so much , I grow a lot of marigolds ,and now I know they can be used for many things
, & I have been growing my own ginger for two years now, love fresh ginger
Thank you for explaining about marigolds. I don't know anything about them and how to use them. So great of you share your information. Really appreciate it. Thanks
THAT WAS SO CUTE WITH THE MARIGOLDS--THE SMILE! AWWW, THANK YOU STACY! :) Dawn @ Rich & Dawn in MN :)
