Do sunflowers like the sun?

Sunflowers love the sun

Sunflowers like sunlight. They are sun-loving plants. Generally, if they don’t see the sun, it will affect their flowering period, or they may not bloom at all. Therefore, it is better to see more sunlight. Generally, they can bask in the sun all day long in spring or autumn.

Sunflowers basking in the sun

Sunflowers need more sunlight. They are not afraid of the sun and can be exposed to the sun for a long time most of the time. However, they cannot be exposed to direct sunlight when the temperature is relatively high. Exposure to direct sunlight for a long time will easily cause its branches and leaves to turn yellow.

Sunflower Light

Sunflowers have very high requirements for light and need a lot of light during their growth period. Generally, it is necessary to ensure that they can get more than 8 hours of light a day so as not to affect their flowering effects. In addition, they do not need sunlight after they are just planted.

What to do if the sunflowers wilt in the sun

If the sunflowers are wilted by the sun, stop exposing them to the sun in time, and wait until the temperature drops and then water them in time. If they fail to resume growth in about three days, they need to be repotted. After repotting, just place them in a dark place for a few days.
