How to fertilize Candy Mountain Sunflower
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Candy Mountain Sunflower after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Hi guys just new here very excited for my sunflower to bloom!

Bloom? #CommonSunflower These were one of those "seed blankets". I would have put them in the ground but the directions showed them in a container. They just keep getting taller & taller. Will they bloom?

I have just started growing sunflowers Every time I lift my terracotta pots that are sitting on my garden bed wood I see these worms are the beneficial or are they a warning that I’m doing something wrong?

Help! What’s happened to my baby? All was going well, I replanted in a larger pot and then a few days later she looks like this! It has been very hot and sunny recently but I water once a day. What could be wrong?

My boyfriend bought me this sunflower #CommonSunflower but everyday its leaves are hanging and looking sad. I have been watering it almost every day because it helps the leaves. I don’t want to drown her, dose anyone know what to do. (We don’t have access to outdoor space for plants)

I am a first time plant owner 🥲 and I have a few questions, How and when do I cut this beautiful flower? Or I don’t need to cut them? 🤔😐
-
The leaves have curled I think because of the sun and not enough water maybe. Will it still flower? And do I need to do anything? Maybe prune the curled leaves? Please help :) #CommonSunflower

Sunflower My sunflower isn’t thriving as much! We just had a lot of rain and cloudy days in afraid she won’t survive. I repotted her and sun should come out tomorrow anything else I can try?
-

I’m thankful for the 3 I still have left! #SunflowerJourney #Sunflower #SunFlowerBabies #Sunflowers #sunflowerlove #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #PlantTherapy #BeforeAndAfter #OutdoorGrowing #PlantLove #FloweringPlants #EdiblePlants
