You can give your sunflowers a foliar feed any time you want! But I would be inclined to wait until they have grown a bit, if they are in commercial compost there will be enough nutrients to get them started. If you over feed them they could grow soft and drawn out, and fall over at the least provocation.

St John's wort doesn't really need any help, it grows a bit like a weed!
