Sunflower Seed starting Journal : Day 4

Ok, these are some very slow sprouting Sunflower Seeds.

It’s a good thing I started these seeds indoors because we have had 5 days of plus 31 Celsius here in Northern Canada.

No rain for many weeks. Very unusual for May… Last year we had snow in May.

I am using the Wet paper towel method of seed sprouting… (similar for hemp seed starting)

I’m on day 4 and this is what we have so far (see below)

I deshelled these ones also to speed things along, but not much sprouting going on… maybe 3 seeds so far ?

I can’t wait to get my Sunflower Farm going.

I hope to plant millions of these flowers with the seeds I get from these flowers…

Sunflowers

In the torture of hopeless melancholy,
In the bustle of the world's noisy hours,
That voice rang out so tenderly,
I dreamed of that lovely face of yours.

That voice rang out so tenderly,
I dreamed of that lovely face of yours.

Then to my soul an awakening came,
And there again your face appeared,
Like a vision, fleeting, momentary,
Like a spirit of the purest beauty.

Like a spirit of the purest beauty.

Sunflowers

В томленьях грусти безнадежной,
В тревогах шумной суеты,
Звучал мне долго голос нежный,
И снились милые черты.

Звучал мне долго голос нежный,
И снились милые черты.

Душе настало пробужденье,
И вот опять явилась ты,
Как мимолетное виденье,
Как гений чистой красоты.

Как гений чистой красоты.
