How to plant zinnia
Plant the seeds only about ¼-inch deep. You'll see seedlings sprout in four to seven days. Once the seedlings reach about three inches tall, thin them so that they're 6 to 18 inches apart to maximize air circulation, a key to keeping zinnias looking good all season.
Care
Zinnia care should include watering at the base of the plant. A soaker hose is ideal for keeping foliage and petals dry while providing much-needed irrigation. Zinnia care may also include watering in the early morning, which allows the foliage and flowers ample time to dry off before nightfall.
pests/diseases
Three major, widespread diseases occurring on zinnias are: Alternaria blight (Alternaria zinniae), powdery mildew (Golovinomyces cichoracearum, formerly Erysiphe cichoracearum), and bacterial leaf spot (Xanthomonas campestris pv. zinniae).
