Friend gave me some sunflower (seedlings) to plant and I just potted them. I’m in sunny Colorado!

The single best thing you can do is buy a $10-15 soil hygrometer online. You stick it in the soil to check and never water until it tells you the soil is dry. You’ll learn what your plant needs for your location/conditions with that better than anything else

Where are the sunflowers? 🤣🤣🤣

They’re seeds, hence the random pic that does include sunflowers but not mine 😁
