I'm considering remaking that video soon. 🌱🌱🌱

Taking the plunge this year. I have a poetic justice seed purchase - green/envy zinnia. I purchased that variety and failed it a few years ago ( direct sown but bunnies at the sprouts ) so now that I winter sowing I’m excited to finally grow these and MAYBE see them flourish.

It's currently winter here in Australia and I'm very much looking forward to planting some zinnias in the spring. Hoping to winter sow many varieties using the milk bottle method - it's my first time ever so hopefully will all go well.

I thought my zinnias were beautiful....and then I watched this video lol. I am so jealous of those beautiful blooms!

Looking forward to my zinnias boming. How do you start cutting?

I have ones from the nursery who flowered two days after i planted them, can i snip the flower off and get the same results? How long about will it take for new flowers too form on the new snipped growth?

Very useful video, especially since it's on a very specific flower! These are in my top 3 favs :P. I just wanted to mention something, and please don't take it as me attempting to be anything other than helpful to you on your channel. I'm not an expert, just a regular viewer... and sometimes, that's the input that's needed, no? Anyways ... I'm a chatty-cathy ... always so talkative. I feel like you and I would never cease conversation hahaha. In KZread videos however, concise and consolidated explanations work better. People also tend to respect KZreadrs who mention less about their channels and subscribing, etc etc... I feel rude. Hope I don't come across that way though. Good day!

Do you ever plant what you pinch off.

i'm using sand for my cuttings, check the package to be sure it's washed sand

Great video! Thank you! How do you get the landscape material with the holes? Do you cut the holes yourself or buy it that way? It’s my first time planting zennias and the weeds are hard to keep up to.

I just gently break them apart. I like using the open trays because the plants never get root bound before transplanting. Also, cells tend to dry out very quickly using the winter sowing method. Hope that helps! Thanks so much for watching! :)

@TONYAwiththeflowers

4 жыл бұрын

I think it depends on the type of zinnia. Smaller ones are usually fine if they're a little crowded. If they're supposed to produce larger flowers, I would consider thinning them. Generally, a very close spacing will decrease the size of flowers. Hope that helpsd 🌱🌱🌱

Those looked really close together. My seed pack said plant a foot apart for all of mine. thoughts?

Would it be good to pinch if I want blossoms in 2 weeks? Ours are tall and just started getting the blossoms buttons on top

So helpful! I jut got some zinnias from a local farmers market and they are only about 6 inches tall but flowering already and I thought maybe I got a dwarf variety. I'm going to pinch them so they will grow taller!

I can’t keep my zinnias healthy all through the summer in Oklahoma(zone7a). They start dying toward end of July. Is it wrong to water them every morning in temperatures of the high 90s? I figured since roots don’t go too deep, the soil gets bone dry every day. Mine never look as healthy as everyone else’s zinnias. I did start watering at the base to avoid mildew. This year I will be trying not feeding them. I heard a good compost is all you need for the whole season. Thanks for the tips and is there anything I’m missing?

Zinnias are very low maintenance. Sounds like you may be loving them too much. They are a desert flower and once blooming require minimal water and love lots of hot sun.

Does pinching help other flowering plants?
