Some useful tips from The Royal Horticultural Society
Sunflowers can be sown straight into the ground where they are going to flower, so make sure the space you are going to sow is weed free, by using a trowel to remove the weeds.
Rake the soil to a fine crumble texture and make some drills 12mm deep. Leave a 10cm space between each seed. To read more on how to grow sunflowers, go to:
