Tallest sunflower and largest head challenge

Hey guys I'm shore you will catch up but also it could diceded to flower at any point and stop growing tall also don't for get we have the biggest head sunflower too

 

You've won that already now stop it off .

 

I haven't got a single seedling @martin-f did you send a mouse to eat my seeds out of the pot?

 

Oh dear Beckie what are we going to do with you, your not having any luck, you did take them out of the packet before you planted them .

 

I have planted 75 seeds with the intention of using the sunflowers to block off the "rubbish dumping" bit of my plot....we then moved house rather quickly, seeds grew & grew & got leggy. Ive now started throwing them in the ground anywhere I can plant them!

So yes, count me in !

 

Oh! I planted the packet in the compost ....thought I was doing something wrong!!

 

Managed to find time to put some in the planters today, these will be for cut flowers.

 

I like your slug protection I have done the same loads of pellets just to be shore

 

Wish I had especially as they would have colour co-ordinated with the pots

 

Glad you like the slug pellet protection Rich , I was getting told off on another thread one person uses 4 pellets a mtr ,

They don't understand the slug problems us northerners have to deal with


Our common slugs up here in Yorkshire

 

Look out folks mine are 5cm high...I think I'm going to win this....er not

 

Hi Beckie,

Perhaps you should enter a " biggest slug " competition....


I reckon if a slug's 5 cm high it's gotta be at least 30 cm long.

Mind you, you'd still get beaten by Martin

 

Hi @Anthony Rogers at the moment the only competition I could win would be having the most clever rat....I still can't catch that little pesky beast! ,

 

Is it too late to sow. This brought back memories from my grandfathers garden
