Sunflower with multiple flowers, is this normal?

This was an unusual case, but it’s not the first time that sunflower has been observed with multiple flowers. The phenomenon of a sunflower sprouting more than one flower is not uncommon. The reason for this isn’t known. One possible reason is that some sunflowers have a single flower that isn’t yet fully mature, and the second one is in the process of developing. A more likely explanation for this strange occurrence is that these are mutants—plants with new mutations that make them grow in unexpected ways.

How to Harvest Sunflower?Harvesting of Sunflower

Harvesting sunflower is a process of harvesting and preparing the seed for further use. You should first separate the heads from the rest of the flower. You should be careful not to damage the heads. After you harvest the heads, wash them thoroughly and dry them in the sun. Next, the sunflower heads need to crack open, and the seeds need to be removed.

The seeds of sunflower plants are covered by a hard outer shell called the testa. This shell is made up of lignin, a very hard substance. If you can remove this shell, then the seeds can be easier to process and eat. Harvesting these seeds is a very easy task that anyone can learn how to do. Just follow these steps: First, take your knife and cut down around the stem until the whole seed starts to pop out.

Next, pull up the seed, and it will easily come out of the plant. Now, you need to dry it out. You can either spread the seeds on paper or cloth or you can use a food dehydrator. These are the best methods for drying them out. If you decide to dry them out yourself, try using an oven, but if that doesn’t work out, you should probably check out a local shop to see if they offer this service.
