Harvested the seeds from the two big heads on the north edge of the central bed. The flower petals were totally dry/crispy. The back of the heads were yellowish. (definitely not brown, but not green either) They were somewhat hard to remove from the head, required some force to do so. Results: I feel like it might have been a little early, maybe resulting in the seeds being a bit small (but still edible).
Roasted with the quick method and the longer method and found the result the same in both cases. Would have liked them to be saltier.
Looks like no more sunflower harvest after this, as the ones outside the yard will need to be cut soon for aesthetic reasons, and the two still in the yard snapped their stem so unlikely to mature.
