    Despite the deer, my sunflowers turned out pretty good. They're just starting to tip their heads.

    One thing I'm not thrilled about is how tall they are. They are over my head when I'm seated on the tractor. In the past few years, one of the biggest threats to the dove field has been September wind storms/hurricanes that blow everything down.

    At my dove club, the farmer planted a variety that is supposed to have short thick stalks. They were rudely expensive and I'm not sure they were a Clearfield variety. Without special ordering, I'm at the mercy of whatever variety my local seed store carries. Has anybody ever found a reasonable source for sturdy Clearfield sunflowers?

    First year doing sunflowers and they came out ok. Lots of volunteer millet coming up in the corn. Cadre took care of most of the millet in the sunflowers.

    30" rows with about 7" spacing. I adjusted my planter this year to 30" from 38" and I like it a lot better. Less sunlight getting to the ground and a hell of a lot easier to straddle the rows.

    I think the tall plants is more a function of the variety than environmental conditions. I guess it could have been due to when we had rain and drought. My sunflowers are taller than the corn.

    The tall plants are a result of good rain, fertilizer, and winning the sunlight race.

    Looks good.

    Rain was sporadic but enough at the right time. Fertilizer might be a suspect in the tall plant mystery. I used liquid fertilizer instead of granular which allowed me to more precisely apply it to the roots instead of feeding the weeds between the rows. My herbicide regimen worked better than usual so there wasn't much competition for sunlight.
