1. How to plant sunflower seeds

Seed selection: First select the sunflower seeds. There are different varieties of sunflowers. If you want to plant sunflowers in a pot, you can choose small sunflower seeds that are mainly used for viewing. If you are planting in a larger flower bed or yard, you can choose edible types.

Sowing: Sowing should be done when the temperature is relatively stable. You can choose to sow in April when the temperature is around 20 degrees Celsius. While waiting for sowing, be sure to keep the seeds fresh and prevent them from getting moldy. When sowing, bury the seeds in the soil and care for them carefully. They will generally germinate in about three days and can be transplanted in about five days.

Transplantation: When the sunflower seed buds break through the soil and open their cotyledons, they can be transplanted into a larger pot. Be careful when transplanting and try to transplant with soil. After transplanting, water thoroughly and moisten the soil. During subsequent maintenance, you can place it in a sunny place indoors. If you keep it outdoors, you must water it in time and do not let the soil dry out.

Maintenance: When the sunflower grows about three or four pairs of true buds, you can spray some potassium dihydrogen phosphate on the leaves every few days to promote the growth of the plant. During the subsequent growth process, you should also pay attention to fertilizing, and it should be decomposed organic fertilizer. Only when there are sufficient nutrients can the sunflower grow better and healthier.
