Most gardeners sow fast-growing annuals, such as sunflowers, bachelor buttons, calendulas, zinnias and nasturtiums right into the garden. I agree that it's not worth the trouble to grow these seeds indoors for just three to four weeks, and also run the risk of transplant shock.
Best Answer: Takes approx 14 - 21 days for sunflower seeds to germinate, depending on the type of S. flower, and weather & water conditions.My sunflower package says Sow in open well exposed soil.eep it well drained and the soil wet. Don't water it too much. My sunflowers seemed to take a long time to come up but after about a month of growing they are about 12 tall. They are very cool plants. Mine are the giant type and should grow about 12 feet tall.
