Gettysburg, PA
Been trying to do some research on sunflowers and their use here as a cover crop. I've found some information that suggests a planting rate of 7 lbs to the acre and elsewhere I found 45-60 lbs to the acre. Quite a difference!! So, sunflower growers what do you think? Also can they be planted with a drill and what setting would you use?
