You might have used a too highly concentrated solution. If it is not diluted properly, the salt content is to high and it will burn the plant.

Hurricane's is a good answer. Also, miracle grow is "plant food". Your marigolds still need water.

If you can toast a marigold you have a real brown thumb.

Marigolds are annuals -once they are done flowering, they die. Is that the reason?

you should first make sure your plants have no insects at the root....it may not be the miracle grow....although it can attract insects to the plant root
