Wow what a beauty!! How big did it get? Do you harvest the seeds for eating?

This one was kinda small, got only to about 5 ft, and about 7 inches or so across...I cut most of the sunflower heads off this year, to encourage secondary blooms. I do have a head almost ready to be cut off to save the seeds from...This one will probably be killed by frost befroe the seeds mature...
