Frequently asked questions
When do you sow peas?
Directly into the bed direct sow late april-may, as soon as the soil can be worked — there is no indoor phase for peas.
When are peas ready to harvest?
July, in a typical year for this climate.
Do the peas dates change with the weather?
Yes — the window follows the frost dates of your plot. A coastal garden runs a week or two earlier; an inland frost pocket later. The published windows are the reference, your soil thermometer is the truth.
