Mine went in today;  after some weeks pouring over astrological charts, it transpired that 5 April at noon was the ideal time for sowing mega sunflowers in my postcode area.  Apparently this time on this date ensures extreme growth, which along with my secret soil-mix recipe means its in the bag for me!  : :D :D :D

I've killed two so far, I've another one but it's been about an inch tall with just seed leaves for awhile so I'm not holding out too much hope. I just sowed another handful (three different types) in 3" pots. I can't believe I'm killing sunflowers and everything else is growing fine  ::)

Ohhh, I must have misread the rules .... I didn't realise we were meant to be growing a dwarf variety, does this mean I'm disqualified? :(
