HOW TO GROW SUNFLOWERS
Sunflowers are one of
the easiest flowers to grow from seed. Sunflowers grow wonderfully along a
border and are a good option to grow with children.
Before Planting:
Sunflowers are very tough and can grow in nearly any soil, but prefer full sun.
Planting: Sunflower
seeds do best when planted directly into the garden after the last frost date
has passed. Plant seeds 6 inches apart and 1 inch deep in a shallow trench.
Watering: Sunflowers
need water the most during their growth period, which is 20 days before and
after flowering.
Fertilizer: Sunflowers
typically do not require fertilizing because they grow so easily, but a
slow-release granular fertilizer can be added to poorer soils as the better the
soil, the bigger the flowers will grow.
Days to Maturity: Sunflowers
bloom around 120 days
Harvesting: In addition
to storing the flowers in a vase to lighten up a room, Sunflower seedlings can
be harvested once the flowers are done blooming and have spread their for
culinary use.
Tips: Do not grow
Sunflowers near potatoes or pole beans, as their leaves, seeds and stems emit a
substance that inhibits some other plant’s growth
