MAMMOTH GREY STRIP SUNFLOWER - 40 SEEDS FRESH FOR GARDENS

Description: 40MAMMOTHGREY STRIPE SUNFLOWERSEEDS Planting Guide for Mammoth Grey Stripe Sunflowers: 1. Select a suitable location: Choose a spot that receives full sun for at least 6-8 hours a day. Mammoth Grey Stripe sunflowers prefer well-drained soil, so ensure it is not waterlogged. 2. Prepare the soil: Sunflowers thrive in nutrient-rich soil. Prior to planting, amend the soil with compost or well-rotted manure to improve its fertility. Remove any weeds or grass from the planting area. 3. Sowing seeds: Mammoth Grey Stripe sunflowers can be directly sown into the ground or started indoors. If starting indoors, sow the seeds in biodegradable peat pots or seed trays filled with seed-starting mix about 2-3 weeks before the last expected frost. Plant the seeds at a depth of 1 inch, and maintain a temperature of around 70°F (21°C) until seedlings emerge. 4. Transplanting (if applicable): If you started the seeds indoors, transplant the seedlings outdoors once all danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed up. Space the seedlings about 12-24 inches apart, giving each plant enough room to grow and develop. 5. Direct sowing: If sowing seeds directly in the garden, wait until after the last frost and when the soil temperature is consistently above 50°F (10°C). Plant the seeds 1-2 inches deep, with approximately 6-12 inches of spacing between each seed. 6. Watering: Sunflowers require regular watering, especially during hot and dry periods. Provide about 1 inch of water per week, ensuring the top few inches of soil remain moist but not waterlogged. Avoid overhead watering if possible to prevent the development of mold or mildew. 7. Fertilizing: If the soil is nutrient-poor, you can fertilize sunflowers once or twice during the growing season. Use a balanced organic fertilizer, following the manufacturer's instructions. 8. Support: As Mammoth Grey Stripe sunflowers grow tall and heavy, support may be necessary to prevent them from bending or toppling over. Stakes or trellises can be used to provide support and stability to the plants. Harvest Guide for Mammoth Grey Stripe Sunflowers: 1. Flower maturity: Mammoth Grey Stripe sunflowers usually take around 70-100 days from planting to bloom. Flower maturity can be determined by the browning and drying out of the back of the sunflower head. The drying process indicates that the seeds are nearing maturity. 2. Harvesting: Once the back of the sunflower head turns brown and the petals have fallen off, it is time to harvest. Use sharp, clean garden shears or pruners to cut the stem at least 12-24 inches below the flower head, leaving some stem for easier handling and drying. 3. Drying: Hang the harvested sunflower heads in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight. You can tie them together in small bunches and hang them upside down from a sturdy support, or place them on a mesh screen or drying rack. Ensure good air circulation to prevent mold or rot. Allow the sunflower heads to dry completely for about 2-3 weeks. 4. Removing seeds: Once the flower heads are dry, gently rub or beat them to loosen the seeds. You can collect the seeds by hand or use a screen or sieve to separate the larger seeds from the smaller debris. 5. Storing seeds: Store the sunflower seeds in airtight containers, such as glass jars or sealed plastic bags, in a cool and dark place. Properly stored, the seeds can maintain their viability for up to a year. Following this planting and harvest guide will help you grow healthy and productive Mammoth Grey Stripe sunflowers, providing you with beautiful blooms and an abundance of nutritious seeds.
