I'm going to plant a couple of acres of ground I've got worked up with sunflowers.
I will be broadcast seeding.

Should I ??

A. Lightly disk after broadcasting to get a little soil cover.
B. Cultipack seed right on the surface after broadcasting.
C. Lightly disk after broadcasting to get a little soil cover, then cultipack.

Thanks !

Broadcast the seed atop the freshly tilled earth, then lightly disked it one pass. Two acres planted !
