Sunflowers

How much sunlight do plants need? Well it all depends on the plant. Hostas, ferns, Impatiens & Hemlocks thrive in the shade while succulents like cactii and Aloe Vera need lots of southern sunlight all day. Most flowering plants need at least 6 hours of direct sunlight/day, while lawn & ornamental grasses need full sun all day. Plants use sunlight to convert nutrients from the soil & air into sugars used for energy through a process known as "Photosynthesis"

It depends on the variety. The 'giants' can get as tall as 12-14 feet although 10-12 is more common. There are varieties that will only grow to 5-7 feet and even some dwarf plants that get no more than 3-4 feet. The most common, however are the giants. When you see huge fields of them it is Probably the giant. The pkg of seeds will tell you what to expect. I currently have about 200 giants planted as shading for my SW garden. They are well over 7 ft just now.

Each plant has one large flower head, at the top of the stem.

The flower head is composed of anywhere from a few hundred to several thousand florets, which eventually turn into either the petals or the seeds.

pumpkin seeds

Simply scratch the soil surface to a depth of one half inch or so. Sew the seed about eight inches apart, then rake the soil over them lightly..They will sprout in a week or so, depending on rainfall..If it is a dry spell, water them once every few days.

89 ft tall it was grown by a german farmer with a 2 foot foot

the more sun a sunflower gets makes it bigger..... maybe!! I'm just guessing but that would make sense because it's called a sunflower>>>>>>?>>>>><<<<:"P)

Humas eat sunflower seeds

Kansas has a sunflower on its state flag.

stop eating the shell

Up to the height of a house!

Sunflowers grow in sunny warm enviorments but of course they don't just apear someone or something must plant them but if you plant them in a cold enviorment they are certain to die i sugjest planting them in summer when it is warm and sunny were they can grow healthy, strong, and produce a lot of seeds for you to eat or someone else or to sell. Do not plant them in cold enviorments it is not good for a flower any flower, if you do it is certain to die. :)

There is no specific requirement as to the number of times you must water a sunflower. Depending on the humidity and heat level, you may be able to skip watering altogether for weeks at a time. Generally, you want to keep the soil damp but not flooded.

That depends on where you live. Mid to late spring, such as in May or June in the Northern Hemisphere, or November or December in the Southern Hemisphere, is usually the best time. If you live in an area that is warm year-round, you can plant them in any month.

no,i dont think so because they may die

Yes, you plant tulip bulbs in the fall and they will bloom in the spring. Follow directions on the bulb's packaging. If you have a tulip plant that was force bloomed out of season, once the plant dwendels, let the plant's greenery dry up and turn brown, then trim the leaves off to apx. 1-2 inches above the dirt, and carefully remove bulbs from dirt and store in a mesh bag in a cool (not freezing) dark place. You may also want to make note of the color and name of the bulbs as you remove them from the dirt to store, so you will know what colors and sizes you have when replanting them. Replant the bulbs according to (online) directions, ie depth and width between, and stir bone meal in the dirt according to directions for "prepared ground" in the upcoming fall for blooms in the spring. Water all newly planted plants well, once a day for 3 days. If you can keep the squirrels and weasels from eating your bulbs, you will have nice flowers in the spring sometime around Easter, depending on your climate.

Yes, sunflowers feel sensitivity.

They "feel" sensitivity in that they respond to stimuli, such as the direction and amount of light or damage to parts of itself. It does not "feel" in that it cannot experience pain, discomfort, or emotional distress.

Sunflowers usually have yellow petals and a brown center.Some specific varieties have a reddish tint at the base of the petals, giving them a bit of a "bullseye" appearance. At the bottom of the Wikipedia article (in Related Links) there are pictures of several different kinds of sunflowers.

according to my research, 54 degrees celsius

This depends on the variety and growing conditions. You should expect it to take between 60 and 90 days to bloom.
