| I am new to gardening, so please, bear with me. I know these questions may seem like common knowledge or sound stupid. What type of pot or container is best to grow them in? Can you grow many in one pot? Or is it best to space them out or grow them in single pots? I love the look of them all growing close together like I see on images on Google, but it seems crowded? |

| I'm pretty new to gardening as well. Your questions are not stupid. I leave a few inches space in between each one. |

| In Colorado, we use plastic pots frequently because they don't dry out as quickly as clay pots. As for spacing, I check the seed packet. For example, I planted Renee's Garden pixie sunshine container zinnias in a pot that has a 6-inch-wide opening. The seed packet said to space the seeds 3" apart. I planted one seed in the middle and 4 more seeds spaced equally around the edge of the pot. I'm waiting to see which ones sprout. If I end up with too many plants, I'll just pull the ones that are in the way. |
