Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; do not cover deeply as light aids germination. Keep the soil consistently moist until seedlings emerge, typically within 7-14 days. Thin seedlings to stand 9-12 inches apart to allow good air circulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWater regularly, especially during dry spells, but avoid overhead watering to prevent powdery mildew. Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continued flowering. Zinnias are relatively low-maintenance and benefit from a light application of balanced fertilizer once established.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e100 Salmon Queen Zinnia seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67795541459254,"sku":"FOLIA2-435","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7149016168_ozod.jpg?v=1792671431","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/100-salmon-queen-zinnia-seeds-for-planting-pink-orange-blooms-pollinator-friendly","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
