I use a sifter too, but for Zinnia seeds it's a little harder. I don't want to break them open. The sifter worked really well for the Hollyhock (bc it was a tad bit bigger than the holes in the screen), and the fine seed like Nicotiana, and Agalinis..which went straight through.
I still have more to harvest.

Nicotiana is flowering tobacco and the leaves are host and nectar for Tobacco Hornworm aka Sphinx Moth.

Agalinis is False Foxglove.. It has a pretty little pink glove bloom and skimpy slender foliage, though it is a host for Buckeyes.

These 2 still have green pods which will be turning brown in the next week.
