What you need to know to Plant & Grow Zinnias are heat-loving plants that thrive in the warm Canadian summer but require careful timing during the spring. Sow Outdoors: Direct sow in late May once the soil is thoroughly warmed. Avoid planting too early, as cool, damp soil can cause seed rot. Barely cover the seed with soil. Sow Indoors (Optional): Start in mid-March using peat pots or Jiffy-7s to minimize root disturbance. Sow 6 mm deep and maintain a temperature of 22°C. Germination: Under ideal conditions, sprouts will appear in 5–10 days. Growing On: Once germinated, grow at a cooler 15°C before hardening off and transplanting outdoors in late May. Spacing: Thin or transplant seedlings to 35 cm apart to allow for proper airflow and the plant’s large mature size. Care: Choose a sunny site with well-drained organic soil. Consistent deadheading of old blooms will encourage the plant to continue producing its unique lime-green flowers until the first frost.
