OMG! I know she said giant sunflowers at the beginning, but i really didn't expect them to be that big. Quite amazing. You could build a decent size tree house in there!!
AWESOME!!! I started a Sunflower Height Competition in Claremont, CA, in 2021 and announced (on a Facebook community group for our small city) that first prize is a certificate & a crisp $2 bill. Second prize is a sympathetic shrug, & third prize is a glare for making me walk or drive over. There has been some good-natured trash talking & it got off to a fun start. Then there were about 6 weeks where many of our plants were being eaten & looked like they had weak stems, but now I have over 100 sunflower plant surrounding every side of our house with about 70 in the front yard. A few are now about 8-feet tall & still growing. (Note to self: Try Renee's {Titan} Garden Seeds next year!)
My first attempt at growing giants this year went.. okay. I found this video well after they were over 3 feet tall, and I didn't use any fertilizer nor had I spaced them correctly. 6" apart at best. I can't wait to apply this to them next year! My current sunflower is starting to make a head and it's about 8'. "Russian Giant" supposedly from a garden store. I will definitely be buying your seeds and appropriately gardening next year!
I can’t believe you guys have a TH-cam channel! I have been a fan/purchaser of your seeds for many years. My daughter and I just planted the fairy garden seeds, and they are coming up beautifully! Thank you and God bless🙏🕊🌻
Your dogs looks like, "I've heard this so many times that I'm just going to take a nap until she is done!" Your sunflowers are gorgeous! Seems like such a waste to not plant the "thinnings" other places in the gardens! (Or did you??) God Bless!
As much as I would love to start my sunflowers in the ground, I start my sunflower seeds in peat pots. I let them grow until the roots start to poke out and then plant them in ground. The reason I do this is because squirrels and chipmunks like to dig up and devour my seeds and recently emerged seedlings. And now my mammoth sunflowers are at 8 feet and growing. And yes, I do plant them in amended soil, plenty of water and full sun to partial shade. Arkansas can be tough on flowering plants.
@@beastmuncher527 scratch or clip the seed coat, soak, and plant in peat pot or soil block. Then plant when stems are taller than 6" and roots start to poke out
This was very helpful - I started Burpee Mammoth seeds in cardboard egg cartons and then planted the seedlings 6 inches apart as noted on the package. I did not thin them and now that they are almost 5 feet tall, they are very crowded and vying against each other for light and I can only assume they are also vying for root space below ground. I won't disturb them at this point, but next time, I will follow your method. Thank you for this video.
That's how tall my sunflower got last year between 4 feet---to 5 feet tall ....This video makes me feel like a made scientist if I could grow something that tall...I can't wait how big they get this year...good luck to you...
It is strange, the one's I grow in a more controlled setting verses the ones that crop up in random areas of my house are vastly different. I had one grow as tall as my house and it was one that had been planted by a bird, no up keep or added fertilizers and it grew bigger than any of the ones I monitored in my garden.
Thank you for showing this video. I planted my front yard last week. Sunflowers is what I wanted to put in back yard. Very helpful to me. Hope you have a great day ❤
I planted faint sunflowers last year and didn’t realize how big they could get, plus they had multiple baby heads.. it was SO pretty! Great video! New subscriber
@@jsterling218 Overall they grew great! the rodents ate a lot fo the seedlings so I will fence off and spray with hot pepper for the first week this year. Also, I didn't give them ideal conditions so not quite as big but still very impressive after everything they had gone through!
These are so goooorgeous!! I wish I had the space for them 😍🤩😩. 🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻 Seeds from Renne's Garden are quality seeds. I just planted some seeds that I bought last year when I went up to Ojai. I got 100% germination. I did the heirloom purple krim tomatoes. Can't wait to taste them. 😋 Great inspirational video. Thank you!
I accidentally got american giant hybrid sunflower seeds and immediately found your video aaa I hope I can do a good job. Very informative video, clear instructions, thank you so much!
I have a raspberry patch that looks like that. Not quite as tall, My raspberries are between 11 and 12 feet tall. But very large green leaves almost as big as those sunflower leaves. And they are still growing. I have about 40 days left to the growing season before first frost. I built a supporting trellis for them. I have never seen raspberries get nearly this large. The patch is very thick just like your sunflower patch. My first year with this raspberry patch.
Holy Martha Focker! I was shocked 😳! I am now second guessing my space. I need a farm! 😂 this is an awesome video from start to finish,loved it thank you for all your tips!
wooowww!!!!!!love them...they are soo beautiful..my first time with sunflowers this year they are growing supper well...i don't think they will grow that big but i'm still exited that i got them to start growing.
It trips me out how healthy sprouts are just tossed... Im saying couldn't there be a way to move them elsewhere? I donno some garden culture processes are wasteful.
You pull up plants, a lot of times you'll cause root trauma so even if it takes weeks, the plant will die. Otherwise dig it up but do it in cloudy weather. Doing transplanting in sunny much less hot sunny weather is a death sentence for any plant
Okay! Just put seedlings out yesterday..and yes they are Renee's seeds from our local Hawaiian grocery store. Put 5 foot circular fencing around them to protect from chickens and my adventurous cat and birds . Will add a special fertilizer to the black cinder. Water again. And check on them later. Live in rainforest so usually God does most of the watering. Love your seeds and the video.
Ha - So, this was quite awhile ago - I got most of my seeds to start, but theyd get about 3 or 4 inches tall, fall over and die - Maybe I'll try again one day.
OMG! I know she said giant sunflowers at the beginning, but i really didn't expect them to be that big. Quite amazing. You could build a decent size tree house in there!!
Same I just bought some seeds😂
upon closer look those are CGI. lies.
I've seen mammoth before then she entered the chat with titans
This is like the first time a kinda exaggerated youtube video thumbnail came out to be true
This is the biggest sunflower I've ever seen. Wow!!!
Copy that!
Not really the biggest one is actually 30 meters and inche
@@Sun-Gamer35 lol, i was shocked when i found out they can reach like 15 feet tall, 🤯 i thought they can only grow up to 3 feet tall.

That was a great video. The method was explained thoroughly yet quickly and to the point! Very nicely done! 👍
Yes, now I know when and where to plant them.
Great video? I missed to see the sunflower in the sunflower video....
Yes she is very well spoken! I love this video. Now I know how properly THIN out my sunflower bed.😊🦋🐝🌻🌿🌾🌻🐝🌱🦋🌿🌾🌻🐝🌾🌿🌻☘🦋
They are amazing.2 years in a row my sunflowers have reached 9 ft tall but i have mine in 12 inch around by 12 inch deep pots.
This dog is loving life, he's the best! Sunflowers AMAZING too!

or could eat them - they sell sunflower 'microgreens' at my local farmer's market & they are expensive (but good)
It was hard to watch her thinning them. 😆 I would have to stick them somewhere!

Living in Little Rock Arkansas have some sunflowers growing. Any tips?

You shouldn’t use peat

The biggest Sunflowers in my garden come from seeds that fell off of last year's garden. This taught me to start my Sunflowers early.
Like what month?
@@theemeraldfox7779 The 'wild' ones came up weeks before last frost - our last frost is May 15
Check the packet back for optimal planting times
Just bought some seeds from you guys. So excited to try them this year! Thanks for sharing :)
I love it when you show start to end. Great video
Wow, those are INSANE!!! Thanks so much for the tutorial. It was very helpful.
Thank you for these tips. I just purchased these seeds from you and can't wait to see my giant sunflowers.
I followed the link in your description and bought several varieties that you offer. I'm SO excited!
Absolutely amazing! You have given me the confidence to try to grow my own sunflower seeds!
Those sunflowers are amazing! Thanks for the video!
That dog is my spirit animal!
That is so so beautiful! It really made my soul smile 💜🌻I’m waiting for my meadow of flowers customised for bees to grow
That was a HUGE surprise!!! Thanks for sharing
The dog looks so deflated lol cutie

Sunflowers have really deep taproots. Maybe there's something nutritious down in the soil right in that spot
@@carbonatedmilk5934 fluffy? 🙃
Thank you for your great tips Renee!
Thank you for showing this video. I planted my front yard last week. Sunflowers is what I wanted to put in back yard. Very helpful to me. Hope you have a great day ❤
When 'thinning' you can take a little care and transplant those plants to other areas. Many will survive and you've expanded your garden's output.
Thanks you answered my question. I was wondering if they transplant okay.
Excellent video. Thanks for the complete growth of plant from seed to finish. Liked and subscribed. Keep up great videos, please.

Start planting and sowing seeds because one day it will be illegal to grow your foods and flowers
😳🤭
I was lying down while watching the video but I got up in astonishment after seeing the full grown plant. I didn't know they can grow that big.
Wonderful pair of giant sunflower.....
Wow, these are gigantic!
I love these !
Beautiful flowers

You can actually eat them. The whole plant is edible.
@@pugsabi would you cook leaves like greens/kale?
thot creations I would think so
True, you can use them in salads
