On a side note, I never knew there was some with multi heads. Each node is starting its own flowering site.
I don’t know if I’m going to say anything with the seeds, but should you reduce the amount of heads for health or anything?

The birds have been tossing their seeds everywhere and lots of random ones anyways haha. Thats good to know though.
These ones here I actually started inside in Apr, but the ones I planted during planting in June are almost looking better. Funny how that happens.
Yeah, my volunteer tomatoes look almost as good as the carefully selected, propagated and pampered ones. I try to use it as a example of how I should let go of attempting to control nature and just go look at the zinnias, instead. Sunflowers are great as chop 'n drop mulch, the stems compost relatively quickly, the old ones are full of brownish white pulp that decomposers (grubs, ants, etc.) seem to love. Outer fibrous shells are very tough, will last a while and act as shade and surface moisture conserver. Just chop 'em where they stand or pull them up and lay the whole thing down on the spot. Roots are shallow, no tap root.
