I wrote up some of my tips for Harvesting Annual Seeds here for you.

And I want to send you more of my Green Thumb Gardening and Planting Tips in a "seasonably" timely fashion to your Inbox.

Thanks for Your Emails:
"Love your site & all your flowers! I can't imagine the time spent...don't know how you have time to give us all the info on your site! I don't know if you answer questions or not but I have one for you.

I am trying to grow sunflowers (mini mostly) for my nephews wedding in Sept. They are just starting to bloom(Aug). Should I be taking off that first top bloom? And if so do I let it bloom then take it off or take it off as a bud? I am hoping these are going to last til then. They are just starting to bloom. Thanks for any advice you can give!"

->"I would leave the top bloom alone for now, but when the yellow petals drop, then cut it cleanly off above the next joint/bloom. In fact, by the end of Sept, you may need to cut a few off. This, of course, is assuming you have the "wild" sunflower with blooms on each branch. You should already see the secondary flower heads starting, if you have the wild type. ---- I hope you have the wild type, because the single head sunflower won't work. GOOD LUCK!"

-->"Thank you so much for replying & soooo fast! I do have the "wild" type & am seeing many secondary heads coming.

Once again...thanks for your advice. Keep your fingers crossed!"
