    Default Clearfield seed help

    I was wondering how many acres will a 50lb bag of Clearfield sunflowers plant? I’m using 38 inch row planters with 10 inch spacing. I know my seed population is at around 16,500 seeds per acre. The reason for asking this is Dyna-Gro is now selling 10lb bags of Clearfield sunflowers and wondering if this would be cheaper for the amount of acres I’m trying to plant. Thanks in advance.

    200,000 seed in that bag.
    before anyone gets pissy with my math is probably closer to 12.
    but you'll waste some.

    $200/bag these days? come off the hip and buy the whole bag. you can do it!

    $35 NWTF membership with $25 bass pro gift card. Pick up a bag from Chapin and maybe other places around the state for $32 or $38 bucks.
