I love that the seeds are in a jewelry box! Sunflower seeds more precious than diamonds!
The sunflowers kinda look like jewels don't you think?
@@wendycullingworth3879 They are - the Jewels of Nature
Who is going to tell Steve that he’s not a micro farmer? He’s a legitimate full-size farmer LOL
28k sunflowers!!! I’m “micro” at less than 100 🌻
Right? I laughed when he said that
Unless he's just being humble
Oh my goodness I’d be like Bill Murray in Caddy Shack ... and get ballistic. More than likely from before your birth but hilarious!
100.000 in a field
I was very very lucky. My sunflower seedlings actually survived two 29 degree nights. I covered them heavily and gently with pine needles at night, and took them off in the morning when temperature rose. It was a huge job, since I had so many little seedlings....but it was totally worth it.
I can't wait to try Steve 's seeds!!!!
When sunflower Steve's seeds come to market they will sell like hotcakes....such beautiful colors and form. Sunflowers grow so well here in NE Alabama. I pray the Lord blesses him and his family on getting his seeds to market. God bless
I hope they make them available in the UK!
13:15 😂😂😂 Axle!
The bloopers had me and my husband dying 🤣😭
I love that Steve calls himself a "micro farmer" and then in the next breath, "so, I just planted 28,000 sunflowers". Hahahahahahaha
Im so excited to be one of the lucky ones to order the VGF Bundle today! It was sold out in an HOUR!!!! I think Steve has a HIT on his hands! God is so amazing!!!
Nicole, you are a “perfect storm” type person! You have charisma, skills, and love flowers. I appreciate how you collaborate with other farmers and bring all the info for us to enjoy. I cannot do the farmer aspect of flowers, but I learn a lot for my own cutting garden sized needs. Thank you sweet lady!
Thank you so much Peggy!
"Chip and Dale alert!! Hide your sunflowers!" 😁🌻
THANK YOU I love the collaboration. Nicole please tell your friend he is a FARMER (28,000!) Can't wait to see the progress
I am so jealous. I cannot wait for Steve's sunflowers.
Oh the trials and tribulations of gardening with critters! Love your collabs with Sunflower Seeds, especially his bloopers! The two of you are quite a pair :)
13:15 love the dancing photobomb in the window 😂😂😂😂
I’m SO EXCITED TO GROW SUNFLOWER STEVES SUNFLOWERS. 😁🙌🌻🌻🌻💚🦋
I love that steve named his tractor clifford hahaha
OMG!! Loved Sunflower Steve's modified seed planter! Dang, and that old McCormick tool he used. Life is so much easier when you have the right tools!
Hahaha, 13:15 in the window behind her, lol.
Thanks so much for sharing Sunflower Steve's process with us! And his bloopers, lol.
Lol I was looking for someone else who noticed her son in the window
@@elderberryjamz3654 haha, I scrolled through to look too and was surprised not to see any!
Lol as soon as I saw this comment I saw him dancing 🤣 love it!!!
Hahaha! I was doing the same thing….I spy a silly little ham trying to photo bomb mom’s video without her noticing! So funny 🤣
Oh those damn chipmunks! That's a lot of damage from cute little critters. LOVE seeing Steve's cats and am looking forward to his sunflower seeds hitting the market.
Love hearing from Sunflower Steve! Thanks to both of you.
Ahhhh, Sunflower Steve!!

Hello from Southern Idaho’
!
So interesting! I have wondered how people plant all those seeds in the fields! Cool! Those sunflowers are AMAZING!! GOSH I wish I knew about them before I planted ours! Maybe next year! 👀
Thanks for the great video Sunflower Steve! It was so interesting to learn about the soil and the equipment!
Chipmunks🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿argh!!!!!
Just watching this on Halloween and Steve you just reminded me how cold it was this spring and dry. I do lawn care on the side and remember coming home now just loaded with dust after taking care of a large new property that was still being develop. Yes, we have clay nasty soil too. Love seeing how you have altered your equipment to work for you. Look forward to more video’s and catching up on all your video’s.
The color of the flowers at 1:33 reminds me of a Barcelona fall sunset! Beautiful!
Nothing better then watching a Honda do work! I love his style
I absolutely love the dance we got to see through the window. Lol!
Lucky you!! Can't wait to buy some seeds someday!! 💕💕
Gorgeous sunflowers I’m in the UK and very envious as I can’t those seeds here! Enjoyed the video!
Wow, the sunflowers at 1:35 are my dreeeam color!! Peachy-apricot orange deliciousness!
Honestly Steve is the sweetest. I love this collab so much
those bloopers are the most hilarious thing 😂😂
Cat Wrangler Steve aka Sunflower Steve does another interesting video! Sick Moon on that chipmonk. Veda's new do is so cute on her!!
Amazing to see that big field being worked by one man and yours all by hand. Bless you child!!
He’s getting better at videos! You can tell he’s slowly getting used to it.
I’m excited to see the progress this season… I love sunflowers 🌻
I am so wishing I could get my sweaty paws on those seeds. The sunflowers are stunning
I drove through WI recently, and was wooed by the rolling hills and farmland. I absolutely love the Sunflower Steve content, and say OUT LOUD “take my money” re: his double sunflower varieties when discussed. Keep it coming!
I really love sunflower Steve🌻 , I love that you have him on your channel. Thank you for him.. I planted sunflowers over 7 years ago now they come up wild alllllll over the garden, I allow them to grow where ever they want due them being so beneficial to the bees in summer and the birds in the fall. I had some very unique ones grow last year and I did save seed from them. I might have to plant some to see if the uniqueness comes back in the second generation. 🌻👨🏼🌾❤️🌈🌅👩🏻🌾🍅🤩👍🏼🎈
Love everything you do and Sunflower Steve's clips too. He is amazing. I live in WI and can relate to the conditions here. ♥️
WI here too! We need a sunflower Steve meetup!
WI gal here too! @MelissaSchultz we so do!!
Nicole , awesome info & video ! 👍🌻I am going to be planting Mammoth Sunflowers & other varieties here in Ridgway, Co , the critters here are everywhere ! Deer, ground squirrels 🐿, chipmunks, birds rabbits etc etc so I am going to have my work cut out for me ! ! Be well & safe & thx sooo much for the advice . Grew up in Pittburgh areas PA !👍🌼⚾️
Amazing!! Sunflower Steve must live close to me. I am in Northern Wisconsin and we had 32 degrees 2 nights in a row last week. Now it is in the nineties.🤷🏼♀️ Darn chipmunks!!
Gotta luv WI weather! (Western WI).
Great video, I feel your pain about losing plants to critters. Deer ate half of my flowers I planted from seed in one night. Love goes on and you role with the punches. Love your videos.
Nicole!!!! I had my mouth open the whole time watching you pull out those decimated trays. OMG I'm so sorry about that, my sincere condolences - those damn chipmunks are maniacs!!!
I myself have only been growing one single Sunflower this season. It was as a happy accident from the bird seed I use and I was tptally devastated when the growing bud on top of the three foot stalk got chomped off by a squirrel. ( I live on a balcony and so the bud was at the perfect munching height for a squirrel to scurry right up to it goddamnit)
That being said... The sunflower is giving me two NEW buds this time around at leaves further down the stem!! Nature is amazing and I'm glad I didn't chop the mutilated stalk down straight away. I had no idea sunflowers could come back from having their heads bitten off!!
Absolutely love your videos and content and thanks to Mr. Sunflower Steve as well! I hope your re-plantings go well and happy growing! :)
Just found your channel from the impatient gardener. I love it. Subscribed and liked. 👍
The sunflowers I had planted in the ground came up, 6/7 ain't bad. One of my plants though have been chewed on though, my suspicion is that it was earwigs. I may pull it to give the other plants more of a chance, they are the mammoth sunflowers.
Axel was amusing, your daughter was adorable in her cameo, and I was fascinated by not only the tilling and planting of Sunflower Steve, but amused by his cats too. Thank you for a wonderful video. Cheers!
Wow!
I really hope to get my hands on some seeds when they go to market. I love sunflowers. My one huge one was like 14ft tall branching and it fell over today. I’m not upset. I’m get to plant more where it came from.
I really love your videos I wish I had those seeds of that beautiful flowers of you and Steve but only in my dream to far from reality 🤣😂 crazy from Philippines ❤️
I think I know that chipmunk! You featured his adorable chipmunk face in a previous video. How cute is he now? I know your pain....on a much smaller monetary level of course. I like the mesh idea. Axel's got moves!
You need some of Sunflower Steve’s kitties to keep your chipmunks away!
Really love seeing this, it’s interesting how things are planted on such a huge scale. How does he water though, some sort of machinery I assume and how often does he have to do that?. Looking forward to getting my hands on some of his great seeds eventually. I’m also glad you share your failures, it makes us all feel better since were faced with so many, we assume you great gardeners never have any
As far as watering goes, I am blessed with soil that hold moisture really well as long as we get some rain every few weeks and I go to church every Sunday .
@@sunflowersteve3940 have learned a lot watching these vids & I've been growing flowers most of my 63 years.
Enjoyed this video so much 👍 But so sorry to hear about those naughty chipmunks! My worst nightmare is slugs. I only grow plants for my small garden and it’s devastating when a hungry slug comes and eats your hard work away like there is no tomorrow 😅 Hope the new batch of some flowers will grow fast and strong for you and your lucky costumers 🙏🏻👍🌞
I just found your channel from Impatient Gardener. So glad. Please tell me we will see more of Sunflower Steve and the progress of his flower field
You sure will! He’s in a bunch of my videos and will be providing updates throughout the season! Welcome! 🌻
Same here
Awww you need a she-shed for seed production 🥺
That haircut is SUPER flattering on her! So edgy! ;)
She reminds me of a young Natalie Imbruglia.
Feel so bad for you and the sunflowers, at least they weren’t Sunflower Steve’s seeds, Whew! Protect at all cost! Enjoyed Sunflower Steve’s part in the video. We warmed up for several weeks and then had two nights of frost, sure wasn’t healthy for my zinnias, but I think most will come out of it. The hazards of gardening/farming.
Beautiful Sunflowers!! Please be sure to let us know when the seeds are available!!
Who’s dancing at 13:16 in the window? Axel? 😂 Funny kid!
Oh my gosh, Same thing happened to me. A whole week me too
Just throwing out a thought, cause I really am a fan of his. Maybe, one of your children wouldn't mind learning how to edit for extra money? And once sunflower Steve's account starts monetizing, your child could get a cut! It wouldn't just install work ethic for your child but provide a motivation to gain a valuable skill in this upcoming AI/data era.
that's what Justin Rhodes dose with his kids.
Oh, no!! Cannot believe that chipmunk!! 😱 What a jerk!! 😡 I battle with earwigs... Same boat with needing to start sunflowers in trays. Ugh!! Thanks for including Sunflower Steve 🤗 🌻
i love your shirt
