Easy Step-by-Step Planting Guide

🌱 What You’ll Need:

• Sunflower seeds

• Gardening trowel or small shovel

• Watering can or hose

• Sunny outdoor space

• Compost or potting soil (optional)

🌞 Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Choose the Right Spot

Pick a sunny location! Sunflowers need 6–8 hours of direct sunlight per day.

2. Prepare the Soil

Loosen the soil about 2 inches deep. Mix in compost if you want bigger blooms!

3. Plant the Seeds

• Dig small holes about 1 inch deep

• Space seeds 6 inches apart

• Cover with soil and gently pat down

4. Water Well

Give them a good soaking after planting. Keep the soil moist—but not soggy—until they sprout (about 7–10 days).

5. Watch Them Grow!

As they grow, water them regularly and enjoy watching your sunflower reach for the sky!

🐝 Fun Facts:
