How We Harvest and Roast Sunflower Seeds

[@youwhatmate8503]

English guy here, I love how you stay strapped doing the most menial task, wish you and your family the best on the homestead

[@MrTuber4000]

Tools required: pruning shears, Glock 17.

[@fradee2830]

Jarred Card you guys are so observant, i had to watch a second time to see the pistol.

[@fraktule7493]

I saw the pistol and thought what kind of worms are he shooting

[@ashencloud2158]

In case of animals or something harvesting sunflowers wasn't the only thing he did all day obviously.

[@jake405]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@rosstemple7617]

J C that’s funny because I’m from TX and didn’t even notice. 😝 We don’t see guns as killers only people. Just another tool. Snakes in fall are looking for places to hibernate. They love gardens because of field rats and bunnies.

[@brayxboise]

who else is eating sunflower seeds while watching this and got super paranoid when he said even our store-bought seeds may have worms o.O

[@mrseaballs1]

That's a good reason to do your own . Soaking makes the worms and bugs float to the top. Same with picking berries

[@sanayabreanna]

Matt Bray me...i stopped eating

[@brandon-ty7lh]

Matt Bray that made me drop my bag

[@ngandang96]

Matt Bray lol me I started looking at the shells of ones that I ate😂

[@rayrodriguez2291]

Matt Bray I guess okay whatever you say and I agree boss

[@JHemp12]

It blows my mind how these grow on a flower in a pretty circle like that.

[@deannelson9565]

It's because it's not "a" flower it's hundreds ....each seed is one flower inside the whole mass.

[@piolinmetsti2682]

Jhemp 12 It's the Fibonacci sequence.

[@tomkenney5365]

Fibonacci is all around us. Well, the golden ratio is, which the Fibonacci sequence approximates. Sunflowers, pine cones, nautilus shells, spiral galaxies (like our own), the list is huge. A very simple concept about breeding rabbits, with profound implications.

[@t.richocereus3577]

A good way to check for worms is to put the seeds in a bucket of water. The ones that sink are good to eat or plant, and the ones that float are either sterile or have worms in them. Thanks for the great video!

[@PeterSedesse]

Yep, I was just going to post the same thing. It is a good idea to soak the seeds in twice as much water. Not only do the worm-infested seeds float but a lot of other stuff like bugs will float too.

[@hermajestysmagicalqueendom7699]

Thanks for the info. ☺

[@mccarthykane3960]

Mine were headed for the chickens until I read that, thanks.

[@skimasktheuglygod5865]

i don’t really care too much i eat the seed whole bruh

[@whatchulookinatboy1393]

Then the shells would be soggy

[@samanthaangelramos]

How many worms have I eaten and not known... until this video

[@suzieparis6821]

samanthaangelramos ..pure protein anyway...won't hurt you

[@littlesheit1790]

Same 😂😂😂 I probably ate billions by now with my addition.. 😂😂😂

[@Mikey-ym6ok]

There are bugs, spiders in almost everything you eat. Its nature point is to not be a baby

[@TheTomBevis]

Don't worry, the worms taste just like the grain they eat. Corn worms on sweet corn are especially tasty.

[@commonconservative7551]

don't worry, in order to get a good crop they do magical things to our foods via monsanto

[@santiago600]

I planted my first mammoth sunflowers a couple months ago and the first one has just bloomed and I am watching this so I can learn :)

[@AGilbert_81]

I'm so addicted to these things...the worms are extra protein.

[@blakewilliams5344]

The seeds with worms are always so bitter, but ive learned how to detect a bad seed with my tongue before chewing into it. Spit

Whenever anyone asked me what my favorite flower is, it’s always going to be a Sunflower. They give you something beautiful to look at then it also feeds your soul 🌻💕

[@markskip6348]

Definately! Just driving past acres of sunflowers makes me smile!

[@raeRenae1]

Do you know the brand from the 80s used to be 10 cent

[@drakekay6577]

Why does the spiral of sunflower seeds turn the creative portions of my brain into vast storms of ideas? Sooo stimulating!!!! 2:39 Very good shot of a head on the table... Perfect lighting to show contrasting shades of seed colors...

[@_esmeralda_5112]

You are a magical man 👏🏽😍😉 I'm addicted to sunflower seeds like I have a jumbo bag next to me 😂 when I'm older I wish to own a sunflower seed company 😩

i eat the breakfast lunch and dinner im honset my doc says eat more that seeds like a full meal need proof

[@MadaraUchiha-bh4vl]

I'll work for you if you do 😊 would be fun!!

[@RayoBeatz]

i was waiting for him to shoot the sunflowers down

[@GoldLeafPress]

It’s so amazing how small these flowers were once and how tall they grow!

[@Jefflantern483]

Lots of tips in the vid to harvest, brining the seeds & roasting the seeds! As I have 4 sunflower plants blooming & soon to seed!👍👍👍

[@YasChosenChild_70]

Beautiful home & sunflowers 🌻!

[@mcraw4d]

You can use the small seeds for growing micro greens. I have an old baking pan that I add about an inch of soil then a layer in the seeds followed by another inch of soil. In about two weeks they are ready to trim and add to salads, burgers, and such.

[@babyruth5165]

Eating Sunflower seed is so much addicting, been eating it for years.

[@ddalton8754]

I love the homey feel of how they make these. Makes me want to buy local.

[@1959shack]

Thank you for the video. This is the first year we have planted sunflowers and they are beautiful. Now I know how to get them ready to eat , too. I had no idea it would be such as easy process.

[@131dyana]

Love sunflower seeds. Love roasted pumpkin seeds also. I will try to grow the sunflower seeds myself next Spring.

[@adamjeppson7677]

Nicely done - you got my mouth watering for some plumb tasty sunflower seeds. It also made me smile to see your second amendment enthusiasm on display.

[@mrundead6438]

extra protein from the worms lol

[@Mikey-ym6ok]

Me chewing on sunflower seeds....🤤😐🤢🤮

[@blakewilliams5344]

The worms are so bitter

[@ladiemaez2595]

Thanks for this video 🎥.

[@espeterson522]

You should make your brine solution before you put the seeds in. That way you can ensure the salt is properly dissolved without having to stir the seeds too.

[@raeloupied6193]

Love to see the open Carry and Love to see you living off the land!!! Bless you Brother.

[@miahstalings8572]

I put some of these at the very end of my flower bed out front I’m three or four weeks in I love watching these lol seedlings grow in the actual flower so refreshing for me.

[@Chocamatoes]

Thank you for the step by step.

[@pinemeadowshobbyfarmafruga8319]

I dry the entire flower with seeds intact and place one dried flower per week in the chicken coop. The chickens to a wonderful job of picking the seeds off the flower head and keeps them from getting bored while penned up when their not free-range. Question: Are you planning a solar food dryer for dehydrating sliced veggies for next year as an option for food storage?

[@coreyvincent3468]

Me too. Love sunflower seeds

The ones with worms have that funny taste. I've noticed that for years in the store-bought seeds.

Awesome harvest! I unfortunately had to cut mine down to hang dry them... the chipmunks loved them found more seed shells on top of the sunflower then were left in the heads! Russian mammoths are a fantastic tall (most of mine were atleast 7 feet tall) and large heads (most of then were atleast 12 inch heads

Man , I really love Sunflower seads, especially when salt roasted ! *Always keep a big bag at home!

[@olympicgardencrafts]

I love your work; personally I put seeds for germination into paper bags, not plastic - the plastic makes them sweat and mold, ruining the seed, in my experience - especially if gathering from heads that are still green. Whatever works for you, but this is what I've found working in Northwest WA.

[@thom7853]

My favorite are white sunflower seeds, has such interesting taste variations. And my favorite brand is Tadim, easily the best quality of the dozen of brands i've tried.
