How long does it take for a sunflower to grow?

Question

I planted them two weeks ago and I just want to know when I should expect them

Answer 1

THEY USUALLY COME UP AS TWO LEAFLETS IN A WEEK.....KEEP IT WATERED WHEN THE SOIL IS DRY......ONCE IT GETS THE SECOND SET...IT SPIRALS ....MINE ARE ABOUT NINE FEET HIGH.....MAKES YOU FEEL GOOD.....ITS A SYMBOL OF RISING ABOVE ALL SADNESS AND SEEING THE LIGHT.....THEN YOU CAN FEED THE BIRDS ALL WINTER WITH THE SEED S AND THEY LOVE IT.....SAVE SOME SEEDS FOR NEXT SPRING AND ENJOY

Answer 2

Sunflowers usually germinate within 2 weeks' time. They need plenty of water and sun. Sometimes critters will eat seeds so it's a good idea to watch the area closely. If you don't see any sprouts in the next 3-4 days, try peeking to see if seeds are still there. If you resow, only plant seeds to the first bend in your pointer finger, or about 3/4".

Good luck!

Answer 3

There are many different varieties of sunflowers. It only takes a few days for them to sprout -- certainly less than a week. Some flower early. Some flower late. Also note that some flowers are heavier and need to be staked.
