I start my Sunflowers in Styrofoam cups outside on a table inside a cage made of chickenwire, otherwise, the squirrels will dig out all your cups. When I'm ready to transplant, I water them well then tear off the cup. Last year I actually grew some in a container and they did astonishingly well!

I'll pass along a tip as well for harvesting seeds. After getting blisters, I picked up my cats shedding brush, those metal serrated hoops, and dragged it across and they came right out.
