Hey! Nobody cares if your deck isn’t perfect! I think your farm is beautiful !!!Nobodies houses are perfect!! Definitely not mine!! Thank you for helping me with my second year of Sunflowers! I didn’t know what to do with them last year, but now thanks to you, I do this year!!! yay!! Have fun camping!! I wish my fiancé liked to camp. 😢

Hi Mya, Your sunflower video was very timely. I've planted sunflowers from seed for the last two years and rabbits or deer have eaten all of them and I would end up with no blooms. This year I planted them in pots and once they were 12 inches high I planted ( hid them) behind a row of cosmos, SUCCESS! Do you know what variety the giant sunflower is? I only have dwarf sunflowers. Have fun camping!

That's a nice harvest for volunteer sunflowers! 🌻 🌻

Hi Rylee, I’m so happy for you! Smart thinking about hiding them behind the cosmos! I think it was a Mongolian giant. And the branching was a lemon queen. I planted both those last year and I was planning on saving the seeds but the birds got to them before I could. Worked out well in my favor! Not only did the birds replant them but they replanted them in a perfect spot! Thanks for watching! And we had fun camping!

Thank you Julie! I had about 8 volunteer sunflowers in total this year, and all of them were healthier, bigger and stronger than all the ones I planted. I’m not sure why. The volunteers look like trees, the ones I planted look like skinny pencils. Thanks for watching!

I need help please, I'm growing the big sunflowers with the grey striped seeds. Well there growing wonderfully but i'm not getting any blooms where the seeds form. This is very fustrating can you please tell me why there not blooming yet.

Hello! That is a beautiful variety of sunflowers. I know sunflowers can take a LONG time to start to flower and actually produce the seed. So my best advice is to be patient and they should come!

ok thank you@@simplybloom

You can use the stock to make trellis with twine 😊

[@simplybloom]

Oh that’s a good idea!

@@simplybloom I saw someone do that with some huge sunflower stocks. They dried them and made a ladder trellis and a tee-pee trellis.

Thank you for this video. I had my first volunteer this year and had no clue what to do. Now I know and the birds will be so happy.
