Zinnia flowers are one of the easiest plants grow. They grow quickly, and their prolific, bright flowers bloom in vivid or even neon shades from mid-summer to fall. They make a massive burst of color in your garden and they attract butterflies. They also don't need much care, just simple weeding. Pinching spent blossoms encourages new blooms. Zinnias make beautiful border plants and cut flowers. Zinnia helps cure constipation and the extracts are used in many beauty products.
Planting instructions
Sow seeds only ¼-inch deep.
Place plants 4 to 24 inches apart depending upon the varieties. (Many common varieties are placed at a distance of 6 inches within the row and 2 feet in between rows.)
You'll see seedlings in only 4 to 7 days for most varieties.
When seedlings reach three inches tall, thin them so that they’re 6 to 18 inches apart to maximize air circulation. When thinning, gently pluck out seedlings or cut them off with scissors at soil level so that the remaining seedlings' tender root systems do not get disturbed.
Sow in succession for a longer blooming period.
Growing Requirements
pests
Zinnias have no major insect problems, but are susceptible to these: Bacterial and fungal spots, Powdery mildew, Bacterial wilt, Caterpillars, Mealybugs, Spider mites. These may cause them to discolor, lose vigor, wilt or damage to the leaf etc.
soil
Zinnias grow in loamy soil which is humus-rich and well-drained at a pH of 5.5 to 7.5.
spot
They grow best in the full sun.
temperature
They thrive in daylight temperature of 15°C [60°F], preferable 23 to 29°C [74 to 84°F].
watering
Zinnias like to be well watered, especially when young; but do not like waterlogged soil. Maintain watering levels upto 1 litre per week.
how to harvest
Harvesting Seeds: Allow the flower head to dry completely on the plant. It will be dark brown in colour.
After drying, cut or pull it off of the plant. Then, simply pull it apart or rub it between your hands to release the seeds. Place a container underneath to catch the seeds.
Store the collected seeds in a container or bag in a cool, dry place.
Harvesting Flower: Cut stems to desired size, making sure to cut just above a leaf node or bud to encourage new blooms on the remaining stem.
