Jonstn Posted October 7, 2011 Here's a pic of the sunflower: Bugs have had a bit of a meal, but it's doing pretty nice considering the poor quality soil. Pumpkins are cranking, roots are starting to shoot out the bottom of the pot already! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

El Presidente Hillbillios Posted October 11, 2011 i think it depends alot on the freshness of the seed. Mine came up in about 4 days. But old seeds can take a month Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
