Zinnia Seeds
Collecting some seed from dried zinnia flowers:
Bowl at the bottom has the dried flowers, slightly crumbled. Finding the seeds involves scrunching the flower bits between your fingers feeling for the hard pieces. The container at the top right has bits that aren't seeds, and the one on the left has the seeds.

I am sure this process can be mechanised. A rolling pin and fan might be all that is needed.
I'm guessing that these are flower seeds. I'm not sure what they are.
I had to google zinnias, as I am not familiar with them. They are gorgeous flowers and I am tempted to try a few, but because of our spring frosts I am not sure how they would go. Still seeds are cheap! I love flowers that self seed!
I haven’t seen zinnias since my grandmother grew them. A long process but the reward at the end is satisfying that you grew them from seed.
