    I literally love growing zinnias!! People walking past my property often stop and take photos of my flower field 🤩🤩🤩 I only grow small scale and just for myself to pick and give to friends. I’m not a florist by any means 😆 and not a farmer either (yet). Maybe one day I can grow on a larger scale and sell to florists but for not it’s just good for my soul.

    Such a lovely video! Thanks so much! ❤ I'm just a hobby gardener, but I love to get reliable information from the experts. Zinnias are my absolute favorites! I bought 4 packets of semi dwarf pumila mixed Zinnia seeds for $1 from my local dollar store, and they were the talk of my neighborhood! I was able to cram 4 plants together in 8" planters, they bloomed their heads off until frost! Gardening is fun already, but getting the most bang for our buck, is a whole different feeling! Everyone should begin gardening with flowers like Zinnias ❤❤❤ these are feel-good flowers even for the black-thumbed!

    Fabulous run through for those of us who need a little reminder boost, or for some who may just be starting out! 🌻

    Great video. The stakes look to be 4’ x 8’, and the two sets are about 2’ and 3’ above the soil. This is a very simple way to stake and we will try it next year.

    I’m so excited! Great info for a new hobby flower farmer who’s trying to figure it all out. I still work as a paramedic and have a million other responsibilities so it makes it difficult to read an endless book recommendation list. I learned SO much here! Thank you!!! 💚

    Does blood meal work on repelling ground hogs?

    I’ve just found your channel and I’ve got to say it’s one of the best for giving clear, no nonsense information. I live in the UK and have tried to grow zinnia the last two years and have been very disappointed. However,I’m not one to give in so I’ve got more seeds and I’m trying again this year following your instructions. Fingers crossed.

    Thank you for the great information and tips. I planted zinnias for the first time back in 2022 and now I'm hooked. I do like the Oklahoma series and they did perform well last year, but I guess I prefer flowers that are larger in scale.

      Thanks so much!! We use a different method for lisianthus- I'm teaching an online class about lisianthus soon, you can see details here! www.butterbeefarm.com/gardening/flower-gardening-with-butterbee

    Bonjour! Petite question: si je veux semer mes Zinnia à l’intérieur. Je devrais avoir de la lumière. Combien d’heures pour le début des semis? Et pour l’extérieur, qu’elle est le temps de lumière le plus performant? J’ai essayé les leds rose lorsque le plant avait 6 pouces…. J’adore avoir quelques plants de zinnia sur mon terrain. Pour les tournesol, j’aime moins à cause de la visite des ratons laveur. Merci de me répondre.

    This was a wonderful video. Thank you for sharing. Does the bloodmeal work to deter squirrels from jumping up to eat my sunflower blooms. Last summer the squirrels raged war on my flowers and ate every single sunflower bloom. I was so sad!

    • @butterbeefarm
      @butterbeefarm  Год назад

      That is super sad! I'm not sure that blood meal would deter squirrels, but it's certainly worth a try!

    Hi there,
    I was wondering if you direct sow or start in trays? I have a big bird issue where they pull up my flower and vegetable seedlings as soon as they pop out of the ground.😩

    • @butterbeefarm
      @butterbeefarm  Год назад +1

      Sometimes we direct seed sunflowers, but for the most part we seed sunnies and zinnias into trays first. We can protect them better in our propagation house! I'd suggest checking out our "Overwintering Flowers for Spring Bloom" video to learn how you can use remay (frost cloth) over plants. You can do this in the summertime too to protect young seedlings from birds! Just make sure to get the thinnest remay available so the plants don't get too hot!
