I don't think they are in a great position - but then the only way around that is to move the entire greenhouse.

Sometimes they get moldy if you skip the roasting step.<br /><br />To keep the birds on slow speed, cover the seed heads with a net. I've used laundry bags for delicate clothing. They have a zipper and close up nicely over the seed head.<br />Have fun watching the birds figure the covering out...Simple Mind Zenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06445584278684040056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3056334023553147109.post-19677963996024794152009-08-24T13:01:47.746-05:002009-08-24T13:01:47.746-05:00Everything looks so yummy!

This year I only planted squash, zucchini, tomatoes, cukes, and peppers. I only harvested a few squash, some zucchini, and the tomatoes. My peppers never flowered, and my cucumbers had a funny, almost bitter taste. I am not sure why. Hopefully i will have better luck next year.jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11126675657006287838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3056334023553147109.post-52519485678744323642009-08-24T09:51:38.196-05:002009-08-24T09:51:38.196-05:00Those are nice looking vegetables Lola especially ...Those are nice looking vegetables Lola especially the cauliflower.

My husband would know about the sunflowers.<br /><br />But, he is in Canada right now and our cell service does not offer Canada as an option so I can't call him right now.<br /><br />As soon as he gets back in the states I will ask him and try to get back here with answer for you.<br /><br />He was raised on a farm and knows all about these things. I am a city girl recently changed into a country girl and have no clue!!<br /><br />We leave ours for the birds and squirrels. But we only planted a few this year.<br /><br />I hope you have a great day and I'm glad I found this blog too!!Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05378896151545384221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3056334023553147109.post-19370613025079195202009-08-24T01:47:08.517-05:002009-08-24T01:47:08.517-05:00Your cauliflower looks great...none of mine were a...Your cauliflower looks great...none of mine were any good so I'm very jealous!!<br /><br />As for the sunflower seeds..they need to be roasted if you want to just eat them....or you can add them to your cooking.<br /><br />To find out more visit; http://www.sunflowernsa.com/ It's a great website for all you need to know about your sunflowers!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3056334023553147109.post-16770654389331223902009-08-23T17:32:48.001-05:002009-08-23T17:32:48.001-05:00WOO-HOO!!!
