Hello again, ScarletTricycle,
" Do you have a thread on your breeding creations? I always like looking at new forms or colors people have helped create. "
I have an ongoing message thread here on The National Gardening Association titled "It can be fun to breed your own zinnias." This is a link to it.
The thread "It can be fun to breed your own zinnias." in
Annuals forum
There was also a related much shorter message thread titled "My encounter with a tubular petaled mutant zinnia." This is a link to it.
The thread "My encounter with a tubular-petaled mutant zinnia" in
Annuals forum
When I first started breeding zinnias as a serious hobby I had a series of message threads over at a website called "Garden Web". Garden Web was subsequently acquired by a company called Houzz who maintain the original Garden Web forums in a modified form. I also had/have some zinnia breeding participation at a website called "Dave's Garden". Your participation at any or all of those venues is welcome.
I am currently modifying some of my T8 fluorescent fixtures to "overdrive" them, in preparation for restarting my Winter Zinnia Project. I learned to overdrive fluorescent fixtures many years ago in a message thread at GardenWeb. Zinnias thrive indoors in increased light.
