Yep, that's right.

Actually they are very tall and spindly so I don't expect they will do well. I will stick them in the garden tomorrow and see what happens. Chances are the slugs will have eaten them by Monday.

Mine are doing ok, I was pleased that 6/6 germinated

Come on sun, shine more in my garden

I may plant two in the garden, then the rest will have to grow in pots. But they may be stunted

I will have to grow mine in pots, perhaps there could be a pot category?

It's nice to see a bit of confidence Jez but don't start fooling yourself.

We're not long back from the garden centre with some so called "special" plant food, we thought it was £4.99, but when we checked the receipt it was actually £9.99 for a little bag!!

What made things worse was a sign I spotted on the way home saying free well rotted horse manure!!

I'm only joking with ya Stewy! My sunflowers were sown in the sunniest situ but still gets a little shade so don't think they'll do so good but still going to give it a shot though!!!
