Planting And Care

Water plants deeply but infrequently to encourage deep rooting
Feed plants only sparingly; over-fertilization can cause stems to break in the fall
Tall species and cultivars require support
Bamboo stakes are a good choice for any plant that has a strong, single stem and needs support for a short period of time

Sunflower Large Bloom Care

Sunflowers grow best in locations with the direct sun (6 to 8 hours per day); they prefer long, hot summers to flower well
Sunflowers have long tap roots which need to stretch out so the plants prefer well-dug, loose, well-draining soil; in preparing a bed, dig down 2 feet in depth and about 3 feet across to ensure the soil isn't too compact
Find a well-drained location, and prepare your soil by digging an area of about 2-3 feet in circumference to a depth of about 2 feet
Though they're not too fussy, sunflowers thrive in slightly acidic to somewhat alkaline
Sunflowers are heavy feeders so the soil needs to be nutrient-rich with organic matter or composted (aged) manure Or, work in a slow-release granular fertilizer 8 inches deep into your soil
If possible, put seeds in a spot that is sheltered from strong winds, perhaps along a fence or near a building

Sunlight	Full Sun, Part Sun
Watering	regularly
Soil	Find a well-drained location, and prepare your soil by digging an area of about 2-3 feet in circumference to a depth of about 2 feet.
Temperature	soil temperature:55 to 60 degrees F
Fertilizer	Make sure you have potassium and phosphorus in the soil.
Harvest Season	You can begin to enjoy the bright sunflower blossoms several months after you planted seeds, but you will have to wait another month or so before you can eat sunflower seeds. Although the exact timetable varies among cultivars, harvest time usually rolls around toward the end of summer. For cut flowers, remove 1 foot or more of the stem with the flower and plunge it into hot water immediately to draw out air. For edible seeds, you must harvest the flowers after the leaves shrivel but before the seasonal rains. The flower heads with 1 to 2 feet of stalk must spend another month hung in a dry, well-aired spot before you extract the seeds.
