I am new to vegetable gardening and have question about peas?
I am wanting to grow all types of peas, english, snow, early, alaska, etc. I have started some other plants in jiffy peat pots, but wondering about how to do the peas. Package says to sow outdoors 6-8 weeks before last spring frost, which would be about now as I live in NC. Would it work if I used the jiffy pots, and placed the container outside? Any help would be much appreciated.
I’d keep them indoors, in the best sun you have, until they get too big, about a foot tall. If you put them out now it will slow them down lots. They can take the cold but they don’t grow fast in it. They can take lots of direct sun too, as long as they are kept watered and not so hot they dry out. You need to have something they can climb on and more than a single string. The concrete reinforcement screen, ( can’t remember the correct name right now) the stuff with about 6″ square openings, works great. Jiffy pots might be better because I think the soil in them would hold together better when you replant. Ideally you like to plant some now, wait a month or so and plant more.
