Lots to eat

I am worried that my heads are so big this year that they may fall when the plants start to die, Hopefully the oil will dry out. Interesting fact about sunflowers. They turn from East to West throughout the day following the Sun. Once they mature they stay faced towards the East. For deer control, I put a dark colored or camo tee shirt on a coat hanger. Zip tie to a tall T-post with a hat on the top. Have it so it will move with the wind. Put that out when they just start to pop up. You will need several. Other option is an electric propane cannon. They cost around $400 but that is nothing in comparison to Clearview seeds, chemicals, fertilizer and sweat equity.

The propane guns worked good around here for years in watermelon and peanut fields but the deer have gotten use to them.
