That's when you plant.For instance, if your last frost date is May 15, you should plant in early to mid-April.Don't know the last frost date in your area? Check with your cooperative extension, or a good gardener in the neighborhood.Prepare the seedWhether you're planting indoors or out, it's a good idea to break or soften the hard seed coat before planting.You can do this by soaking the seeds overnight in water or nicking the brown coating with a nail clippers or a piece of sandpaper.If you start your seeds indoors, use biodegradable pots, such as Cowpots, homemade Paper Pots or peat pots.The seedlings resent root disturbance, so it's best to have a pot that can go in the ground right along with your transplants.Plant the vines about 6″ apart in a sunny location, ideally with protection from intense, afternoon sun.Unless you've selected a bush-type, your peas will need strings or a trellis of some kind.Peas use tendrils to climb. They can grasp anything that's a quarter-inch or less.Anything bigger won't work.The best support is string, twine, or netting with a grid that's at least 2″ x 2″ .Netting with smaller openings — ½″ or 1″ — will not work well.Trellis netting, such as Nearly Invisible Netting is ideal.Mulch the soil surface to help keep the roots cool.Water if rainfall is insufficient and fertilize every 15 days or so with liquid fertilizer.Pick frequentlyTo keep your vine productive, cut flowers frequently and remove the faded blossoms.Once summer heat arrives, your vine might turn brown and die, which is normal.At that point, you can pull it out and replant with something else.Some varieties tolerate heat better than others.SHIPPING Your orders ship the next business date after payment via US mail.
