I am not a gardener by any means but I have been looking after my daughters sunflower she brought home as a tiny plant from school.
It is now in a larger pot and is nearly 6 foot tall. We have had terrible weather here the last few days and it has taken a battering! I am surprised it has lasted this long!
Yesterday I noticed the leaves have lots of dark brown patches on them and are looking very unhealthy indeed. The sunflower head is there but not opened yet.
Now for my probably silly questions-
Can sunflowers be overwatered as there has been torrential rain here in the north or can they be overfed with artificial plant food? Thanks.
