I love to cut zinnias for vases to put around the house. This is a win-win for me. Thanks for the video.
I pruned mine a lot earlier, after two sets of leaves ,and got great results.
Good to hear! Pruning definitely makes a more bushier, productive plant.
I wouldn’t have done that, so thank you for telling us why we should. Great tip 😊
You're welcome!
first year to grow zinnias. i hope i can manages to grow well.. thank you for the tips!
Thank you do love these two min tips great ideas!
Glad you enjoy them!
Thank you, Travis! This tip has come at just the right time for me! My zinnias are just now starting to bud - Now I'll know exactly what to do!
You'll be amazed at how they start to "bush out" once you cut back that first bloom.
Oh wow I didnt know we could prune zinnia flowers. I will definitely be doing this. Thanks for the tip!
Oh certainly! Pruning keeps them going.
I had not thought of doing that to them, much better than one flower on top, thanks
Happy to help!
I do this with my pepper plants. It’s called “topping”. They bush out and cause more blooms, thus more peppers.
We've heard of folks doing this with peppers. Might try it with a few of ours this year.
Hoss Tools Yep! They stay low and bushy. They not gonna get anywhere near titty high.
@@gardeningwithhoss Been doing this also the last 2 years on my peppers and my peppers no longer require staking and twice as much fruit. Wait till the plant has about four sets of true leaves (usually when the plant is about 6-8" tall) and then top. I thought this was BS when I first heard about it but gave it a try, glad I did.
I’ve been eyeing my pepper seedlings and wondering if I should try topping them, now I know I should. Tried it once with another type of plant a prior year and it really helped keep it from getting out of control. Thanks for the tip!

Hanks I needed this tip!
First year growing zinnias, now I have an idea of what to do. Thanks
You're welcome. Zinnias are great and don't require much maintenance besides a little pruning here and there.
@@gardeningwithhoss I went home and did as you suggested. So hopefully I did it correctly. Will let you know my friend. Thanks again.

Thanks for this tip!
Happy to help!
Thank you! Good info!
Thanks for watching!
How many blooms can you typically get off one bush?
It depends. If you pinch off the early blooms and keep the blooms cut; the more blooms it will produce.
thanks so much!
Can I keep pinching zinnia seedlings at their first set of true leaves for a few weeks to keep them compact in pots? Will this make the stalk thicker and will they still bloom later once I see that they won't get too leggy?
When the first bloom forms, cut the top off the entire plant. That will make them more bushy and better for containers.
Thank you!!
You're welcome!
Awesome!
Thanks!
Can you use the fertilizer injector through just plain sprinkler?
josh ward Fertilizer on leaves is never a good idea; especially calcium nitrate.
You can if you're using something like a fish emulsion or our micro-boost. But high nitrogen fertilizers like our chilean nitrate or 20 20 20 would have the potential to burn the leaves a little, especially in this heat we've been having.
Hello sir. My plants are doing really good but i noticed that they're getting leggy. So when i tried to prune it, the stem died. Any ideas how to deal with that?
Zinnias can usually take some pretty hard pruning and be fine. We like to prune the first bloom to make the plants more bushy.
Would you use this same method for cosmos?
Don't see why not.
My blooms are still small. Do ypu wait until the bloom is a little bigger?
yes
Also how long do you let the onions dry?
We let them dry in the sun for 2-3 days, then put them in the shade under the barn.
My dog bit the top off of a seedling plant about 3 inches tall without any blooms..I planted it anyways because the base was still fine, how will that affect the plant? Will it bloom?
Should be fine. We recommend the tops be pinched off for more blooms.
