How to grow Oxycedre Sunflower seeds

• Sow directly into the ground after the last frosts, at a depth of about 2–3 cm and leaving 30–40 cm between plants to allow each plant to thrive.
• For pots or containers, opt for a single plant per pot and choose a container at least 20–25 cm in diameter to support root and stem development.
• Choose a location in full sun, where the plant receives at least 6 hours of sunshine per day; water regularly without overwatering to keep the soil slightly moist.
• Mulch lightly to limit evaporation and promote uniform growth, while reducing weeds.

Harvest, preservation, and practical uses

• Wait for the flowers to fade and the heads to dry; pick them then let them dry completely before extracting the seeds.
• Store the seeds in an airtight container, away from humidity and heat, to preserve their viability and flavor.
• Various uses: light roasting for a homemade snack, adding to salads or cereals, or feeding birds in winter for natural nutritional contributions.
