  19. Planting Time: Sunflower Lemon Queen seeds should be planted outdoors after the risk of frost has passed, or started indoors 4–6 weeks prior to the last frost date for early growth.
  20. Depth & Spacing: Plant seeds 1-2 inches deep and space them about 12-18 inches apart for healthy growth and good air circulation.
  21. Watering: Keep the soil moist during germination and initial growth stages. Once established, water deeply but infrequently to encourage strong root development. Be cautious of waterlogging.

  23. Maintenance: Lemon Queen is relatively low-maintenance, but staking may be necessary if growing in windy areas or if the plant grows taller than expected. Deadheading spent blooms can encourage more flowers.
