Hey! Have you tried - zrumplina diy aquaponics (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? Ive seen some decent things about it and my sister grew cool veggies with it.

We are growing sunflowers this year

Plant them and forget them . Thanks you make it seem so easy.

thanks.for teaching me how to

how about just putting it 1 inch deep into the ground and watering it lady?! u make it sound as if its rocket science

yea you should probably plant them in pots and keep them somewhere where birds won't get to them until they sprout.

What did u use to record this? A potato

@ 0:07 is that a tranny in the background bending over??? I swear I saw some man plums falling out of those oversized Daisy Dukes. Reminded me immediately of "Buffalo Bill" from Silence of the Lambs with that crazy hair. "Hey, what are you? About a size 14? WHAM!!!!" Not referring to the amateur narrator, she's clearly larger than a size 14, but to the part of the movie where Buffalo Bill kidnaps the girl...

GAWD you are a HORRIBLE teacher! this video SUCKED

yeaea...... i have mammoth sunflowers

i just plant mine outside in the soil lol. so far that is working pretty well :)

@pimprock23 They need to have some wind to make the stem stronger. A fan or outside breeze.

@tarnicles lmao it happened the same to me

I planted a packet full of sunflower seeds in my backyard. A bunch of stupid birds descended upon them and ate them up.

im growing mine inside in seeding trays and they are falling over, is it safe to use suports on then or will they straighten it self out later?

They are very large seeds not small seeds. You do not need to go through all the nonsense of bags. Just plant them in the ground. The seeds do not have starts thay have cotyledons starts are what baby plants are called

Good video. If you are in need of a tool to kill weeds, check this out, I use it all the time and it is great - weedcaneDOTcom
