Compared to the experience of most people with sunflower self-seeding and the maintenance of green plants in sunflower cultivation, the editor will introduce the details next.
As autumn approaches and temperatures drop, it's time for a new round of flower planting. Many friends choose to plant flowers in autumn because the cool climate is suitable for plant growth. However, you should consider the results, as autumn is brief, with only about 3-4 months before winter arrives. Winter temperatures are too low for plant growth.
According to the normal logic of flower cultivation,播种 (播种) is done every spring. After a spring of growth, flowers will bloom in the summer. This is the normal way of thinking about flower cultivation, as flowering plants are different from succulents, which can be planted all year round. Succulents have a short growth cycle and can take root when planted in a pot. Different plants have different characteristics.
For all flowering plants, the growth cycle requires at least 4-5 months, at least four months and up to 5-6 months, or they will not bloom. This is a rule that no one can change. Of course, planting in a greenhouse may result in earlier blooming because the temperature inside is higher, which speeds up seed germination and growth.
In autumn, it is not recommended to plant flowers or buy them. It's unnecessary as winter is approaching soon. Moreover, the duration and intensity of sunlight in autumn are reduced, making it less suitable for plant growth. Even flower enthusiasts in the southern regions should be extra careful.
Can sunflowers self-seed?Recently, there has been a trend online of sowing sunflower seeds, with many flower bloggers recommending and selling them. Sunflowers are considered emerging plants and are currently used as cut flowers. Placed in a vase in the living room, they can last for a long time and are considered a type of fresh flower. As for whether they can survive through seeding, I am not sure because I have never planted them.
I have seen local sunflower bases in Yunnan, all planted in greenhouses, with dozens of acres planted at the same time, similar to planting vegetables in greenhouses. After blooming, they are sold on the market, but only after being harvested and packaged.
Many online flower bloggers recommend sunflower seeds, holding cut sunflowers and talking about how to sow them. The possibility of successfully growing sunflowers from seeds is very low, with only a 5% chance. There is a 95% chance they will not survive, especially when planted in pots.
