Oh my! The huge central sunflower fell down today. The stem snapped. Weighed the head -- 3.5 pounds. That lower part of the stem was streaked with brown on the inside, my guess is those sunflower maggot flies' babies.
The site, so alas, no harvest from this one either.
Still a few more sunflower heads from which I can hope to get a harvest.
It left quite trail of devastation, like a tree coming down. Ground cherry and squash banged up, but, likely will be fine (not that I'm getting anything out of those central squashes anyway!).
