Mini Sunflower Greenhouses

This weekend we planted some Giant Primrose Sunflower seeds along our east fence line. We have many birds in our yard who love to visit recently watered areas looking for bugs. So, we covered our sunflower seeds with plastic cups and plastic water bottles cut in half. We wanted the seeds to remain undisturbed by the birds, and we figured this might help the seeds germinate quicker. Once the seeds have germinated and are growing well, we will remove the cups.
