@@DaisyCreekFarms hi Jag,nice day! this is Phyllis contacted with u about sponsorship, I sent email to u on 23th July, can u kindly check and reply pls? Thanks!
I agree! I came home from work sad, and went to my alley to take out the trash and was surprised to see the sunflowers petals had (finally) come out. I was so happy! I also saw the first bee of the season.
One of the main benefits is that their roots break up soil and enrich the soil, they go so far down its really a good idea to plant sunflowers as a start if your ground is not the best, free labour!
Similar story here. I hung up a bird feeder I bought on a lark (no pun intended) 🐦. Seeds fell to the ground. When pulling weeds, I saw 3 “weeds” that I wasn’t sure were weeds. We’ll, here I am with amazing sunflowers! AND there are probably 75-100 seedlings coming up now. Amazing.
This is my first year with sunflowers, and it's funny to see you as excited as I am to see the happy bees all over them. We've had a major increase in bumblebees and honeybees this year. Thanks for the short, light-hearted overview of the benefits!
It's also really beautiful to plant sunflowers and once they get started, plant morning glory seeds around the base. They will keep the ground moisture and vine quickly up the sunflowers.🌻
They also pull heavy metals out of the soil, mining companies plant them when they leave and are finished with the mine. A great variety called star burst is nice with multiple heads and colours and last for a long time.
Nice video. One more beneficial effect of sunflower is that its roots promote a symbiotic relationship and growth of Mycorhiza fungi which is very beneficial for your garden crops.
Love Ur videos!!! One other thing the sunflower plant is good for is saving the stalks and dry them out for next yrs. garden trellis stakes, they work well some being 8 ft. or more, thanks for Ur time!!
I am growing sun flowers for the first time this year. I love the idea of using sunflowers as a trellis. I just learned about this method a few weeks ago and I am trying it in my own garden. I’m a RUclips gardener too. I think I may have already messed up. My pole beans and morning glories that I planned to grow up the sunflower and growing so much faster then my sunflowers! Do you have any advice on what I should do now? I may make a trellis out of branches but I’d love to see this work out as is. Thank you for all your help. You have taught me something new. I hope we can continue to support and learn more from each other.
Thanks Jag for your info, I didn't know that that about the sun flowers. I'm sure going to plant some. God bless you, your family and your gardening 🙏🍀☘️🌿💐
This my first year as well and I'm addicted to them now.they are so beautiful and smell good too. Love watching the bumble bees, honey bees and hornets working on them everyday. I grew dwarf incredible and mammoth russian, and love them. Going to try the American giant next spring.
Good video, everyone should plant at least a few! We enjoy watching the bees while blooming, and lots of birds in the Fall eating the seeds from the dried flowers. The dried stalks make good plant stakes and trellis.
Nice video. Important to mention, that there are types of sunflowers now, which do not have nectar - so stick to the types which are good food for bees. Cheers
Sunflowers are my favorite! I have several growing in my vegetable garden. It’s fun to watch the squirrels run up to get the seeds. They jump between the mammoth sunflowers. Toward the end of the season you watch them go down slowly as their weight bends the stalk.
I heard you can also use their dried stems as kindling for fire starting! Makes sense because we gather lots of stems of weeds in autumn to use for kindling. We'll be trying it this year.
There is a town called solvang it is in Los Angeles. They have the most sunflowers I have every seen fields and fields. My fav flowers..ty for ur video
A happy thing is going on in there! Nobody will realize but these bees will pollinate so many other plants and trees that nature will flourish in few sq/km in coming years.
If you put more flowers per square foot (4) de roots will prevent weeds to grow there, next year your garden is free of weeds. Sunflowers have lots of small roots and fill the soil completely. 2 sunflowers help to keep snails away from the rest of your garden, snails love sunflowerplants.
Thank you for all the infirmation you share. I would like to know; do I plant them within the things I grow or should they be planted on the perimeter. Im not sure. Please help.
Thanks pal! I have American Giant and Skyscrapers. Good season so far some snail and slugs no biggie. Something was digging the seedlings up idk what. But they're going strong 💪
First of all, you have a really nice piece of property and your sunflowers. Look beautiful. My question is, I just saw a video from someone speaking of sunflowers that they shouldn't be in your garden because they put a toxin into the ground that kills anything around them within say one foot. I see yours look like they're kind of separated away from your garden. So that has no ill effects on your garden. Do you know anything about these toxins? The guy was talking about. Thanks. Ed.
Wow, really informative, Jag. What you didn't address is how much sunlight a sunflower requires to thrive.. with a name like that, I imagine alot! My garden gets about 6 hrs of direct light; perhaps not enough?
I have always planted sunflowers for my bees, birds, and butterflies. Eventually, even my squirrels like to chew on them at the end of the season. It keeps everybody happy.
Well this is great information thank you. I’m going to tell you what God planted some sunflowers for me in my garden. I’m not joking. I had a birdfeeder up last fall across the yard. We also didn’t fill up that birdfeeder many times either in the fall.. Somehow those seeds work their way across the front yard to be planted right alongside my tomato plants LOL in perfect quadrants of four LOL. I have never planted sunflowers myself before because I heard that they are attract tomato hornworms? So I have a small yard small garden and didn’t want them around. But now even if they do attract those tomato hornworms. I’m sure I will not have an infestation and it will be OK. The benefits outweigh the deficits? I have already purchased a pack of beautiful fall colored sunflowers to get out into my yard very soon here. I make a really nice fall autumn yard scheme that they will look lovely in!!!! Yay. Also I am making this comment made video and I will use the organic seeds I grew for sunflower greens in my salad. I do not know if you cover this in this video?
Op Hs well thank you very much. I mean I wish you could see how perfectly they’re planted. Around in a patterns of four though it’s crazy. I can’t wait for these fall sunflower seeds to come up. It will look super nice.
Hey Hru Thank u for sharing ur experience with sunflower My Fort time I bought some planters but they are not healthy I bought 9 of them Can I put them. Inside Pls help me
Jag, these are some great videos! Just wondering, should I plant the sunflowers some distance away from the rest of my garden? (Since they attract the bad pests)
Nexim I also saw a man walking down the street he literally ripped the whole thing out of the ground and it still had the roots attached. Then when I got closer to home I noticed my favorite sunflower I would walk by was gone.
I've heard of two different gardeners in my neighborhood who have had flowers stolen, cut right out of their garden. They weren't sunflowers. One person had gladiolas stolen. The other I don't remember. I really can't comprehend this. So heartless to steal from someone else's garden.
Same here. Cannabis did actually end up being a gateway...to sunflowers. And with both, I am hoping to start doing my own experiments in breeding. These are really bringing out my inner mad scientist. Going to start attending to the wild rose bush out front as well, now that I have learned a bit about rose hips.
Hello and hi 👋😃🙏🇮🇳jag Singh sir. How are you a very good morning and good afternoon to you and your family from me and jag Singh sir your garden is really beautiful and wonderful and those people who have terrace garden they can also watch this video of your gardening.
I plant them because the make me happy! I love watching the hummingbirds going after them
Hummingbirds go after your sunflowers? I haven't seen humming birds here trying to get nectar from sunflower since they have a long beak
They ALWAYS go for my red and purple Monada's

I love sunflower. Last year I bought seed intended for feeders at the dollar store, 3$for 2lbs grew a line 150ft long. It brought me a lot of joy.
Similar story here. I hung up a bird feeder I bought on a lark (no pun intended) 🐦. Seeds fell to the ground. When pulling weeds, I saw 3 “weeds” that I wasn’t sure were weeds. We’ll, here I am with amazing sunflowers! AND there are probably 75-100 seedlings coming up now. Amazing.
All those “weeds” are free bird food if you let them grow ✌️😎
We do the same, beautiful healthy sunflowers from bird seed!
Omg what a good idea wow thank you 0:05
Our first year planting Sunflowers. They are the only thing thriving in our 100 plus degree weather at this time. 🌻☀️❤️
This is my first year with sunflowers, and it's funny to see you as excited as I am to see the happy bees all over them. We've had a major increase in bumblebees and honeybees this year. Thanks for the short, light-hearted overview of the benefits!
I planted sunflowers specifically to attract the bees to my garden. They are also pretty to look at.
Chris Darry-Rose Elrod they also self seed for next year...
Same
you need multi flower sunflower not the kind he is planting , try to search for wild sunflowers in etsy.com
Are they actually effective in attracting bees?
@@gooner5703 yes.
It's also really beautiful to plant sunflowers and once they get started, plant morning glory seeds around the base. They will keep the ground moisture and vine quickly up the sunflowers.🌻
Great tip on the sunflower + morning glory combo ✔️ TY
I planted bean next to them . in my three sisters pattern of corn beans and sunflower seed.
@Clea That is a really cool idea! I'm going to try that on one or 2 of my sunflowers next year just to see how it goes!
@@gwens5093Or squash for them to grow ❤

We started a local sunflower Facebook group and so many people have planted sunflowers! It’s awesome.
What a wonderful idea.
I love how you are promoting to save the bees 🐝 . I will now plant sunflowers 🌻.
Its so nice seeing people treasure the beauty of God's earth. You seem so happy and that passes on other people :)
My parents always had sunflowers in there garden and so did my grandparents.. Great video. Love the tips you put out for the beginners!!
1. bees
2. catch crop - attracts pests away from other crops
3. beneficial insects
4. produces lots of seeds
5. cut flowers bouquet
I am glad to know I added a few packs at these at the end of my flower bed. Thinks for letting me know why it was really important to do so!

Remember when HGTV used to have all the good gardening teaching shows? It sure is nice to have you to teach us now. 🙂
Right?!
I planted these for the first time this year!
Was just thinking planting some sunflowers for seeds. Didn’t know it had so many benefits. Very valuable knowledge. Thank u!
Sunflowers are my favorite! I have several growing in my vegetable garden. It’s fun to watch the squirrels run up to get the seeds. They jump between the mammoth sunflowers. Toward the end of the season you watch them go down slowly as their weight bends the stalk.
Yes squirrels seem to love sunflowers. It is entertaining to watch along with the beautiful flowers. Cheers.
The man looks like a truly delighted man. That is a good life a simple thing like a flower provides this joy.
Wow this video made me so happy to watch! Thank you for sharing so much good helpful information. And for sharing your sunflower fueled joy!
Nice. 650' of sunflowers is impressive. 5 good reasons indeed. Thumbs up, my friend.
I heard you can also use their dried stems as kindling for fire starting! Makes sense because we gather lots of stems of weeds in autumn to use for kindling. We'll be trying it this year.
I like how they follow the sun,,,
Started growing them in various places recently. Tall and dwarfs. Great video.
There is a town called solvang it is in Los Angeles. They have the most sunflowers I have every seen fields and fields. My fav flowers..ty for ur video
I planted 4 mammoth ones this year. I so hope they pollinate this year, because none of mine grew last year, just the stalks not the flowers!
A happy thing is going on in there! Nobody will realize but these bees will pollinate so many other plants and trees that nature will flourish in few sq/km in coming years.
I love sunflowers...such a happy video..
I have learned soo much from you. Thank you. You and your wife are truly blessed.
Thank you 🙏
Going to plant sunflowers now
I love sunflowers!! I have chocolate cherry sunflowers and they are gorgeous!!
Nice!!

I plant them as a wind and sun block. in Arizona it can get tough when its really windy and 105°F
Jag sounds like professor Berlin when explaining about aphids and lady bugs kudos man
My favourite flower 😻
Thank you...i love sunflowers...i just germinated some in the pot...for my vegi-garden...love all your advice
Thank you for all the infirmation you share. I would like to know; do I plant them within the things I grow or should they be planted on the perimeter. Im not sure. Please help.
What do you do to get the seeds? How do I dry them out to grow for next year. A video would be wonderful
Excuse me sir. Your video is Awesome! Thank for sharing your knowledge!
Great video, thank you! I’m planting several variety this week!
They make good microgreens in the winter too.
I love them I planted 3....2 are still seedlings but My big baby starting to flower 🌼
You have tremendous knowledge about farming. Keep sharing. I love farming, gardening but all I have is my balcony for my plants
Thanks pal! I have American Giant and Skyscrapers. Good season so far some snail and slugs no biggie. Something was digging the seedlings up idk what. But they're going strong 💪
Awesome!!! You are the man. Thanks for the tip.
I grew sunflowers for the first time. They make me happy every time I walk past them

I'm growing a sunflower garden in my backyard. What should I do with the stalk once it's finished blooming? Rip it up and re-seed or leave it?
Good information Jag...you are teaching ppl the things they will need to garden successfully.
Wow, really informative, Jag. What you didn't address is how much sunlight a sunflower requires to thrive.. with a name like that, I imagine alot! My garden gets about 6 hrs of direct light; perhaps not enough?
Not enough for most plants
Thanks lot Jag it was very useful information, would love to see more n more research on Sunflowers
Great information, going to grow them for the first time this summer. Thanks for sharing.
I love the colors
Thank You for teaching me.
Thank you....most informative...so appreciate
Thank you for the info it's been very helpful!
I have always planted sunflowers for my bees, birds, and butterflies. Eventually, even my squirrels like to chew on them at the end of the season. It keeps everybody happy.
Thanks for the tips. Maybe I’ll put some mixed with the okra next year. I get bad aphids on my okra.
Thank you. I did enjoy your video! Very informative.
Jag, you are the best!
Thank you

I heard that they also enrich the soil with nitrogen as opposed to depleting it.
Thanks buddy.That was inspiring.You could also mention growing the seeds as sprouted microgreens
Hey Hru
Thank u for sharing ur experience with sunflower
My Fort time I bought some planters but they are not healthy I bought 9 of them
Can I put them. Inside
Pls help me
Best advice I ever heard!
This reminded me to ask a question: If you cut the flower off, does another one grow back from the same stem? (concerning all flowers in general)
No, not from the same stem.
But if you have multihead sunflowers they will grow from the leaf shoots!
Jag, these are some great videos! Just wondering, should I plant the sunflowers some distance away from the rest of my garden? (Since they attract the bad pests)
I was just planting some rn. Really love your channel!
Do you have any video of how to grow daisy step by step
Thank you so much for your nice sharing friend 🌻
I love your channel. Your information is very helpful and to the point.
Nice. Thank you. Do you sell seeds as well?sunflower n others ....
Hi . Regarding sunflower, how can I have multiple branches
i’m planting giant sunflowers as a natural fence along my yard boarder and by my picnic table for shade and privacy
I love walking in my neighborhood and seeing other people planting the sunflowers. Sadly sometimes when they are so big other people steal them :(
How do you steal a sunflower!?!?
They cut it.
Nexim I also saw a man walking down the street he literally ripped the whole thing out of the ground and it still had the roots attached. Then when I got closer to home I noticed my favorite sunflower I would walk by was gone.
rosylemon yeah but how do you lift a big sunflower, like the 3-4m ones
I've heard of two different gardeners in my neighborhood who have had flowers stolen, cut right out of their garden. They weren't sunflowers. One person had gladiolas stolen. The other I don't remember. I really can't comprehend this. So heartless to steal from someone else's garden.
All your informations are excellent. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for this video 😍
Can I plant the Black Oil Sunflower from True Leaf? Will I be able to harvest the new seeds for Microgreen? Will there be seeds?
great advice ... next year they are my main crop!
I love 🌞 flowers
Thanks!
I plant eleven different types and colors of sunflowers!
Great video. I'm obsessed with sunflowers 🌻 🌻🌻🌻!!!!!
Same here. Cannabis did actually end up being a gateway...to sunflowers. And with both, I am hoping to start doing my own experiments in breeding. These are really bringing out my inner mad scientist. Going to start attending to the wild rose bush out front as well, now that I have learned a bit about rose hips.
Great info. This will help me next spring. Is it too late to plant them now?
Little late but you can still plant them if you won't have frost for next 90 days.
Hello and hi 👋😃🙏🇮🇳jag Singh sir. How are you a very good morning and good afternoon to you and your family from me and jag Singh sir your garden is really beautiful and wonderful and those people who have terrace garden they can also watch this video of your gardening.
