    This year I planted a row of sunflowers along my fence. They’ve all been pollinated & a lot of birds and squirrels have been eating most of the seeds. I’m pretty happy with that because I wanted to pollinate the bees and help the birds and squirrels. I saved 4 heads and I’m going to save some for next year and eat the rest :)

Also love that you don’t do exact measurements, live to short for that anyways. lol Thanks for the awesome video actually going to try your flavors.

    Us a stiff brush or use a power drill with a bush attachment. Also let the flower head dry out alot longer and the back totally gets dry and turns brown.

    You likely may wish to wear light gardening gloves when handling the Sunflower heads. Will protect your fingers and palms from rough edges. The heads are prickly when green and especially so when dried.

  • @YesterdaysFuture
    @YesterdaysFuture 3 года назад +1

    To make the removing the seeds easier, I rip the heads of the sunflower and create sections.. It gives you a starting point to kind of get at the seeds.

    • @elhamkhawand3492
      @elhamkhawand3492 3 года назад

      To open up the seeds, hold the wide end of the seed between your thumb and forefinger, the thinner end between an upper and lower tooth, pop it up with your teeth, remove the edible seed with your tongue and, there you go. It needs a bit of practice and when you get it you will not be able to stop eating. So addictive.

    Try using some car tint on the windows in the she shed? I’ve never done it but it may help with the temperatures. Some insulation may help between the rafters too.

    If you harvest the seeds without drying them, is it only to help removal, or will it help the flavor too when brining? My sunflowers have been drooped over for a couple weeks, and I cut them today and just took the seeds out right away. I'm now soaking them in salt water.. but wondering if I dried them first if the flavor would he any different. Thanks!
