Does anyone have an idea of what the biggest sunflower grown indoors is? It would be cool if we could start an indoor Winter giant sunflower challenge

As far as I know Jackson holds the Michigan state record like 3 1/2 feet he grew it last winter and then we put it out in the garden last summer in the spring. Jackson was stymied why it didn’t catch up with thr outside onces and only got about 6 feet tall and quit . I’m going to Grow some beefsteak tomatoes have the seeds floating now.You guys want I’m in a growing with my tomatoes under the grow light in the basement this winter.I have some really good sunflower seeds to you guys need seeds

If it gets taller than the 8 foot tall ceiling I will move it to the stairwell so I can get taller but I don’t think that will happen
inside

I grew one a few years ago same as bubas about 3.5 feet but i had no where to put it after that and had to get rid of it.
Buba you should have joined our indoor winter tomato contest we have every year !!! Much easier to do with the smaller plants. we post them in our diarys.check it out in the tomato form.

I think that i will plant a sunflower just for fun maybe i can find more room this time.
