Sunflower

2/14 Planted the sunflower seed in a small white dixie cup in general potting soil.  I punched three holes in the bottom for drainage.  The cup currently rests on a tupperware lid on a window sill.

2/15 After sitting in the sun for an afternoon the soil dried out slightly so I wet the top with a little bit of water.

2/20 A small sprout formed I will most likely water it again once it rises completely from the soil.

2/27 The sprout fully came out of the ground and the petals opened.

3/1  I moved the sprout to a larger Tupperware container probably too soon.  The roots seemed pretty small, hopefully it will turn the corner.

3/18 Newer larger leaves have sprouted but the plant does not seem to grow vertically very much

3/23 More leaves have sprouted but the sunflower continues to grow slowly vertically.

4/10 Growth continues upward and the root ball has spread through almost all of the container.
