Does that matter?

Funny thing is over watering can cause the same thing. Just have to find that balance

Yes balance is everything agreed

Sometimes sunflowers are also just too heavy for the stem depending on the speed of growth. Happens to mine all the time because I get like 6 or 7 blooms on the top of one stalk and it is too heave my

I agreee

Do you use anything to hold them on or will they work themselves out? This is my first time growing sunflowers.

#### Josie님이 2024-07-01에 답변했습니다.

If you can fine stakes tall enough you can use stakes and plant Velcro to support it. I personally just let them hand because the blooms only last a few days before they start dropping petals and trying to seed. If you don’t care about them seeding or staking them you can also just chop them at the bend and put them in a vase for a little while to enjoy.

I was reading that as well. Thank you!!

One may have more developed roots than the other. Check the soil. It needs water if it’s dry. It’s overwatered if it’s wet.
