I was very very lucky. My sunflower seedlings actually survived two 29 degree nights. I covered them heavily and gently with pine needles at night, and took them off in the morning when temperature rose. It was a huge job, since I had so many little seedlings....but it was totally worth it. I can't wait to try Steve 's seeds!!!!
When sunflower Steve's seeds come to market they will sell like hotcakes....such beautiful colors and form. Sunflowers grow so well here in NE Alabama. I pray the Lord blesses him and his family on getting his seeds to market. God bless
Oh those damn chipmunks! That's a lot of damage from cute little critters. LOVE seeing Steve's cats and am looking forward to his sunflower seeds hitting the market.
Oh the trials and tribulations of gardening with critters! Love your collabs with Sunflower Seeds, especially his bloopers! The two of you are quite a pair :)
Your son in the window at 13:16 had me rollin!! Nice photobomb kid! LOL Those are the most stuning sunflowers i've ever seen!! What I wouldnt give to grow some! Great video... thanks!
Nicole, you are a “perfect storm” type person! You have charisma, skills, and love flowers. I appreciate how you collaborate with other farmers and bring all the info for us to enjoy. I cannot do the farmer aspect of flowers, but I learn a lot for my own cutting garden sized needs. Thank you sweet lady!
Oh my God! those sunflowers are stunning! Ihope I'm able to get some when they are out, if not I will enjoy them vacariously through you and Sunflower Steve!
Wow!!! This is so incredibly exciting! Thank you both for sharing and inspiring others as you do. Also, I was quite impressed with the cobra dance at 13:19 . . . How great is it to have fun kids around!!!
You always say you are lucky to have Sunflower Steve as a friend, but he is very lucky to have you. Thanks for facilitating his footage so we can see a huge volume sunflower farm. You two have some nice synergy.
Im so excited to be one of the lucky ones to order the VGF Bundle today! It was sold out in an HOUR!!!! I think Steve has a HIT on his hands! God is so amazing!!!
Great video, I feel your pain about losing plants to critters. Deer ate half of my flowers I planted from seed in one night. Love goes on and you role with the punches. Love your videos.
Oh I want so baldly to get him new pair oh his favorite sunglasses! 😌Who is from Florida here? Lets get sunflower Stive new sunglasses.😂 Nicole you need to get few cats too. That chipmunk will be gone pretty pretty quick.😂 I love her new haircut. She is adorable🥰
I drove through WI recently, and was wooed by the rolling hills and farmland. I absolutely love the Sunflower Steve content, and say OUT LOUD “take my money” re: his double sunflower varieties when discussed. Keep it coming!
Thankyou for making time to edit for our now renowned (due to your excellent sharing) Sunflower Steve 🌻💛 Can't wait for the day these seeds become readily available! Loving all you share from North Idaho zone 6a 💚🌻🌿
Nicole!!!! I had my mouth open the whole time watching you pull out those decimated trays. OMG I'm so sorry about that, my sincere condolences - those damn chipmunks are maniacs!!! I myself have only been growing one single Sunflower this season. It was as a happy accident from the bird seed I use and I was tptally devastated when the growing bud on top of the three foot stalk got chomped off by a squirrel. ( I live on a balcony and so the bud was at the perfect munching height for a squirrel to scurry right up to it goddamnit) That being said... The sunflower is giving me two NEW buds this time around at leaves further down the stem!! Nature is amazing and I'm glad I didn't chop the mutilated stalk down straight away. I had no idea sunflowers could come back from having their heads bitten off!! Absolutely love your videos and content and thanks to Mr. Sunflower Steve as well! I hope your re-plantings go well and happy growing! :)
The sunflowers I had planted in the ground came up, 6/7 ain't bad. One of my plants though have been chewed on though, my suspicion is that it was earwigs. I may pull it to give the other plants more of a chance, they are the mammoth sunflowers. Axel was amusing, your daughter was adorable in her cameo, and I was fascinated by not only the tilling and planting of Sunflower Steve, but amused by his cats too. Thank you for a wonderful video. Cheers!
I really hope to get my hands on some seeds when they go to market. I love sunflowers. My one huge one was like 14ft tall branching and it fell over today. I’m not upset. I’m get to plant more where it came from.
I really love sunflower Steve🌻 , I love that you have him on your channel. Thank you for him.. I planted sunflowers over 7 years ago now they come up wild alllllll over the garden, I allow them to grow where ever they want due them being so beneficial to the bees in summer and the birds in the fall. I had some very unique ones grow last year and I did save seed from them. I might have to plant some to see if the uniqueness comes back in the second generation. 🌻👨🏼🌾❤️🌈🌅👩🏻🌾🍅🤩👍🏼🎈
I absolutely can’t wait to order his seeds..Thank you so much for doing that for him we all really really appreciate the extra time you spend because his sunflowers are absolutely stunning and beautiful
Oh how I wish I could get my hands on some of Steve's seeds this year! 😫 So beautiful! Thank you Nicole for making the time to edit this in Nicole! I know how time consuming it is and I really appreciate it! Thank you Steve for showing us what you do! Can't wait til they hit the market!
Just watching this on Halloween and Steve you just reminded me how cold it was this spring and dry. I do lawn care on the side and remember coming home now just loaded with dust after taking care of a large new property that was still being develop. Yes, we have clay nasty soil too. Love seeing how you have altered your equipment to work for you. Look forward to more video’s and catching up on all your video’s.
Enjoyed this video so much 👍 But so sorry to hear about those naughty chipmunks! My worst nightmare is slugs. I only grow plants for my small garden and it’s devastating when a hungry slug comes and eats your hard work away like there is no tomorrow 😅 Hope the new batch of some flowers will grow fast and strong for you and your lucky costumers 🙏🏻👍🌞
I think I know that chipmunk! You featured his adorable chipmunk face in a previous video. How cute is he now? I know your pain....on a much smaller monetary level of course. I like the mesh idea. Axel's got moves!
Nicole , awesome info & video ! 👍🌻I am going to be planting Mammoth Sunflowers & other varieties here in Ridgway, Co , the critters here are everywhere ! Deer, ground squirrels 🐿, chipmunks, birds rabbits etc etc so I am going to have my work cut out for me ! ! Be well & safe & thx sooo much for the advice . Grew up in Pittburgh areas PA !👍🌼⚾️
Amazing!! Sunflower Steve must live close to me. I am in Northern Wisconsin and we had 32 degrees 2 nights in a row last week. Now it is in the nineties.🤷🏼♀️ Darn chipmunks!!
So interesting! I have wondered how people plant all those seeds in the fields! Cool! Those sunflowers are AMAZING!! GOSH I wish I knew about them before I planted ours! Maybe next year! 👀
Also, don’t throw away the sunglasses, Steve! You possibly can fix them with dots of Krazy glue and sprinkling baking soda on it, layering a bit at a time. I just fixed my expensive prescription glasses that way when the metal thingy broke out of the plastic. Good as new. Of course my fingers are glued together, but whatever. 😎 jk Blessings!
Oh, no!! Cannot believe that chipmunk!! 😱 What a jerk!! 😡 I battle with earwigs... Same boat with needing to start sunflowers in trays. Ugh!! Thanks for including Sunflower Steve 🤗 🌻
I really love your videos I wish I had those seeds of that beautiful flowers of you and Steve but only in my dream to far from reality 🤣😂 crazy from Philippines ❤️
Feel so bad for you and the sunflowers, at least they weren’t Sunflower Steve’s seeds, Whew! Protect at all cost! Enjoyed Sunflower Steve’s part in the video. We warmed up for several weeks and then had two nights of frost, sure wasn’t healthy for my zinnias, but I think most will come out of it. The hazards of gardening/farming.
Micro?!? He keeps using that word...I don’t think it means what he thinks it means 😉😆 “Now that’s a pride” (cue the Born Free song ear worm for the day!) Great video, thank you, and your daughter is adorable!

I hope they make them available in the UK!
THANK YOU I love the collaboration. Nicole please tell your friend he is a FARMER (28,000!) Can't wait to see the progress
I love that the seeds are in a jewelry box! Sunflower seeds more precious than diamonds!
The sunflowers kinda look like jewels don't you think?
@@wendycullingworth3879 They are - the Jewels of Nature
Cat Wrangler Steve aka Sunflower Steve does another interesting video! Sick Moon on that chipmonk. Veda's new do is so cute on her!!
Nothing better then watching a Honda do work! I love his style
Oh those damn chipmunks! That's a lot of damage from cute little critters. LOVE seeing Steve's cats and am looking forward to his sunflower seeds hitting the market.
Oh the trials and tribulations of gardening with critters! Love your collabs with Sunflower Seeds, especially his bloopers! The two of you are quite a pair :)
These are the most beautiful flowers I have ever seen!!!! Gorgeous!!!!!
OMG!! Loved Sunflower Steve's modified seed planter! Dang, and that old McCormick tool he used. Life is so much easier when you have the right tools!
Your son in the window at 13:16 had me rollin!! Nice photobomb kid! LOL
Those are the most stuning sunflowers i've ever seen!! What I wouldnt give to grow some!
Great video... thanks!

I’m SO EXCITED TO GROW SUNFLOWER STEVES SUNFLOWERS. 😁🙌🌻🌻🌻💚🦋
Who is going to tell Steve that he’s not a micro farmer? He’s a legitimate full-size farmer LOL
28k sunflowers!!! I’m “micro” at less than 100 🌻
Right? I laughed when he said that
Unless he's just being humble
Oh my goodness I’d be like Bill Murray in Caddy Shack ... and get ballistic. More than likely from before your birth but hilarious!
100.000 in a field
Hahaha, 13:15 in the window behind her, lol.
Thanks so much for sharing Sunflower Steve's process with us! And his bloopers, lol.
Lol I was looking for someone else who noticed her son in the window
@@elderberryjamz3654 haha, I scrolled through to look too and was surprised not to see any!
Lol as soon as I saw this comment I saw him dancing 🤣 love it!!!
Hahaha! I was doing the same thing….I spy a silly little ham trying to photo bomb mom’s video without her noticing! So funny 🤣
You always say you are lucky to have Sunflower Steve as a friend, but he is very lucky to have you. Thanks for facilitating his footage so we can see a huge volume sunflower farm. You two have some nice synergy.
This video makes me smile inside and out
Im so excited to be one of the lucky ones to order the VGF Bundle today! It was sold out in an HOUR!!!! I think Steve has a HIT on his hands! God is so amazing!!!
Love hearing from Sunflower Steve! Thanks to both of you.

Hello from Southern Idaho’
!
We need more videos of Sunflower Steve with the kitties!!
Amazing to see that big field being worked by one man and yours all by hand. Bless you child!!
Thank heaven for Steves! I cannot wait to get my hands on those lime colors!!!! 🌻
Just found your channel from the impatient gardener. I love it. Subscribed and liked. 👍
Nicole!!!! I had my mouth open the whole time watching you pull out those decimated trays. OMG I'm so sorry about that, my sincere condolences - those damn chipmunks are maniacs!!!
I myself have only been growing one single Sunflower this season. It was as a happy accident from the bird seed I use and I was tptally devastated when the growing bud on top of the three foot stalk got chomped off by a squirrel. ( I live on a balcony and so the bud was at the perfect munching height for a squirrel to scurry right up to it goddamnit)
That being said... The sunflower is giving me two NEW buds this time around at leaves further down the stem!! Nature is amazing and I'm glad I didn't chop the mutilated stalk down straight away. I had no idea sunflowers could come back from having their heads bitten off!!
Absolutely love your videos and content and thanks to Mr. Sunflower Steve as well! I hope your re-plantings go well and happy growing! :)
I love that Steve calls himself a "micro farmer" and then in the next breath, "so, I just planted 28,000 sunflowers". Hahahahahahaha
Honestly Steve is the sweetest. I love this collab so much
Wow, the sunflowers at 1:35 are my dreeeam color!! Peachy-apricot orange deliciousness!
The sunflowers I had planted in the ground came up, 6/7 ain't bad. One of my plants though have been chewed on though, my suspicion is that it was earwigs. I may pull it to give the other plants more of a chance, they are the mammoth sunflowers.
Axel was amusing, your daughter was adorable in her cameo, and I was fascinated by not only the tilling and planting of Sunflower Steve, but amused by his cats too. Thank you for a wonderful video. Cheers!
13:15 love the dancing photobomb in the window 😂😂😂😂
Great video Sunflower Steve, can't wait to see more. excited to see the fancy sunflowers
Lucky you!! Can't wait to buy some seeds someday!! 💕💕
I really hope to get my hands on some seeds when they go to market. I love sunflowers. My one huge one was like 14ft tall branching and it fell over today. I’m not upset. I’m get to plant more where it came from.
That haircut is SUPER flattering on her! So edgy! ;)
She reminds me of a young Natalie Imbruglia.
I really love sunflower Steve🌻 , I love that you have him on your channel. Thank you for him.. I planted sunflowers over 7 years ago now they come up wild alllllll over the garden, I allow them to grow where ever they want due them being so beneficial to the bees in summer and the birds in the fall.

The color of the flowers at 1:33 reminds me of a Barcelona fall sunset! Beautiful!
I love that steve named his tractor clifford hahaha
I love Sunflower Steve and his pride!
Wow!! I am excited to see the seeds progress!!
He’s getting better at videos! You can tell he’s slowly getting used to it.

Someone from Florida, send Steve his Favorite sunglasses. Poor Steve😂
Was soooooo thinking that!
13:17 solid Axel time.
Amazing!! Sunflower Steve must live close to me. I am in Northern Wisconsin and we had 32 degrees 2 nights in a row last week. Now it is in the nineties.🤷🏼♀️ Darn chipmunks!!
Gotta luv WI weather! (Western WI).
You need some of Sunflower Steve’s kitties to keep your chipmunks away!
So interesting! I have wondered how people plant all those seeds in the fields! Cool! Those sunflowers are AMAZING!! GOSH I wish I knew about them before I planted ours! Maybe next year! 👀
Keep Steve on that is awesome!! Darn rats with fuzzy tails..i fight with squirrels!!
Who’s dancing at 13:16 in the window? Axel? 😂 Funny kid!
Love everything you do and Sunflower Steve's clips too. He is amazing. I live in WI and can relate to the conditions here. ♥️
WI here too! We need a sunflower Steve meetup!
WI gal here too! @MelissaSchultz we so do!!
Also, don’t throw away the sunglasses, Steve! You possibly can fix them with dots of Krazy glue and sprinkling baking soda on it, layering a bit at a time. I just fixed my expensive prescription glasses that way when the metal thingy broke out of the plastic. Good as new. Of course my fingers are glued together, but whatever. 😎 jk
Blessings!
I like his big red tractors name! Clifford!! I think the small orange tractor should be named Nemo!! Lol!!
Wonderful, exciting! Bad chipmunk! 😖
those bloopers are the most hilarious thing 😂😂
Awww you need a she-shed for seed production 🥺
Lovely video you made me smile thank you
I am in South Florida, so if you can find out what kind of sunglasses they are, I will happily send him a pair!
Same! I’m in NW Florida.
Get him the sunglasses! I used to live in FL and knew folks would pitch in and help out 🥰
Oh, no!! Cannot believe that chipmunk!! 😱 What a jerk!! 😡 I battle with earwigs... Same boat with needing to start sunflowers in trays. Ugh!! Thanks for including Sunflower Steve 🤗 🌻
