ospam (Rose) expounded:

I have planted them before and want to plant them again but does anyone here
have a solution for sunflowers that (for lack of a better word) flop over?

I would love to plant them again!

As we were discussing in another thread, I'd suspect too much
nitrogen. Sunflowers like a lean soil. Don't use a high nitrogen
fertilizer on them like Miracle-Grow.
