I love sunflowers. Though the sunflower has the same issue of sucking the ground dry of the nutrients, you will need to keep rotating the place, otherwise it will take everything from the ground to the state that nothing will grow there for years.
Yeah I rotate everything, usually would put them in the front garden since they are showy, this year in the veg garden because it’s so hot in the summer they give some shade to the rest of the stuff. It’s a mess right now, the butternut squash got attacked so bad I think it has to be removed in a plastic bag. And something is attacking the sprawling watermelon plants too, but those seem to be surviving.
