Sow: March to June
Harvest: June to September
Sow Outdoors
Make a flat-bottomed drill 5 cm deep and 15 cm wide, and water it well. Sow seeds approximately 7.5 cm apart in a zigzag pattern. Backfill with soil and firm gently. Allow about 60 cm between rows.
Support
As the peas grow, provide support with netting or pea sticks.
Advice
Protect emerging shoots from birds using twigs or netting. Keep the soil consistently moist at the base without wetting the leaves. Sow successively for continuous crops. For an earlier start, sow indoors in late winter and plant out once seedlings are about 20 cm tall and acclimatised to outdoor conditions. For early outdoor sowings, warm the soil under a cloche or polythene if necessary. Pick pods regularly.
