Planting and Care Guide:
1. **Location:** Choose a sunny spot in your garden with well-draining soil. Lemon Queen Sunflowers thrive in full sunlight.
2. **Planting Time:** Plant seeds directly into the soil after the danger of frost has passed, typically in late spring or early summer.
3. **Planting Depth:** Sow seeds 1-2 inches deep and space them about 6-12 inches apart.
4. **Watering:** Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, especially during the germination period. Once established, Lemon Queen Sunflowers are moderately drought-tolerant.
5. **Support:** Consider staking taller varieties or planting them near a fence for support against strong winds.
6. **Fertilization:** To promote healthy growth and blooming, Fertilize the soil with a balanced fertilizer once or twice during the growing season.
7. **Pest and Disease Control:** Monitor for pests like aphids and caterpillars and treat them as necessary with organic pest control methods. Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal diseases.
8. **Harvesting Seeds:** Allow the flower heads to mature and dry on the plant. Once the petals wilt and the back of the flower head turns brown, cut the head off and hang it upside down to dry completely. Remove the seeds by rubbing or shaking the head, then store them in a cool, dry place for future planting or snacking.
