We are also having a competition to see who can grow the biggest sunflower. Am gonna use some of the tips in here for mine. My hubby cheated when he planted his and put the fish blood and bone in the soil. So now the knives are out and i will do anything to win and seeing as i'm in the shed more than him it looks good for me hahahahahaha! I think his may have a little accident xx

You could still put some fish blood and bone down, just put it around the plant and hoe it in abit

And dont forget people that when your sunflower stasts to fade, simply the flower head off and your plant will produce several smaller flowers all at the same time.

I discovered this last year, thinking that if most other flowers produce more after dead heading then why should the sunflower be any different.

Give it a go!!

My family are doing this aunts cousins you name it , we all live miles away from each other so no accidents can be arranged. They sent me some seeds also but forgot so will sow them now a bit late but will do it anyway.
