Cultivation and maintenance
- When to sow: in spring after the last frosts, in open ground or in pots.
- Exposure: generous sun, ideally in well-prepared open ground.
- Spacing: plant in rows with a spacing of about 60–90 cm between plants and 90–120 cm between rows to allow for good head development.
- Soil: fertile, well-drained, and rich in organic matter; adding compost can improve soil structure and water retention.
- Watering: regular during growth and seed filling, without excess to avoid root rot.
Harvest, storage, and preservation
Harvest when the sunflower heads turn brown and the seeds begin to dry naturally. Allow the heads to air dry, then extract the seeds and store them in a cool, dry place, away from humidity and light, to preserve their flavor and germination rate.
