How to protect your baby zinnias!

If your baby Zinnias have been getting demolished by slugs and wildlife plant another batch in a seed tray! You can bring the seed tray inside until they sprout to ensure it stays protected and the soil stays moist.

Heres a link to the varieties we love to grow!

They’re tall and perfect for garden arrangements!

Some seed starting tips:
you can start them in any containers, but I do suggest only planting 1 seed per cell
get the soil wet first
then plant the zinnia seed with about 1/4 inch of soil over it
keep the soil moist (not soggy) and in a warm spot
once they sprout put them in a sunny spot
transplant into the garden at day 14, zinnias don’t like getting transplanted once they’ve set out deeper roots
plant in the sunniest, hottest spot in your garden
cut flowers once the stems are sturdy
Water every couple days

And best of all ENJOY!!
