How much seed will you get from 75' of sunflowers?  p
 
I planted about 50', every 18", planted in two rows between 4 rows of corn.
 
 
Yes, short burst of being busy off the property,,,,,,,,,, with some 
follow-ups in the near future.  Largest protest in US history, I should have 
the official stats by tomorrow, at least from the official group.
 
I was one of the main speakers here.  One of the  thing I explained was 
hidden inflation tax in laymans terms, and how it is a massive ponzi scheme, 
transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich........ I used posters, and many 
people were teared up, some crying for their children, when I was done.  The 
published tax rate is NOT the problem, not the real problem.
 

Anyway mostly outside, and fixing computer lately, as my hard drive actually 
died.  Planted flower gardens for mom, etc.  Feels good

Hey Leslie.

I've been reading your posts, you sound busy. It's good busy though,
isn't
it? I like to find a few sunflowers coming up from last year's seeds. They
are strong survivors and will be the first sunflowers of the summer. It's
good to have them popping up here and there. I've got a 75' row of them
planned up by the road. Good to see for me and those that drive by. Easy
too.

I always plant sunflowers at the edge of the corn patches.  I noticed the 
thrice cursed crows would only destroy the outer rows of corn and I guessed 
this is because they don't want to feel confined.  Sure enough, if the ends

of the field are in a tight triple row of sunflowers, the crows will not go 
into the corn.

Yellow, OR Wax beans make a great salad.

Boil beans until soft, in salted water. Drain and let cool.

Make Sauce Moutard.  Take 1 TB spoon Dijon mustard, plus 2 cloves of finely
minced garlic, salt and pepper.  Add 5 TB spoons of red wine vinegar and
stir.  Add 10 TB spoons of olive oil and vigorously stir.  Note the
wonderful emulsifying effect of Dijon mustard.

Spoon sauce over room temperature beans and eat with bred.

Sauce also works with sliced tomatoes, hard boiled eggs or string beans.

Enjoy
