Peas are a cool-season crop, easy to grow and very quick to harvest. Direct-sow the seeds 1 to 2 inches apart and 1 to 1½ inches deep. In warm southern and western climates, peas are also ideal as a fall crop started in late summer.
Planting Depth: 1.5"
Seed Spacing: Plant Alaska Pea seeds roughly 2" apart in rows, keeping rows approximately 2.5' apart
Nutrient Care Instructions: Apply SUPERthrive once per week. Soak in solution of 1/4 tsp per gal for 15 min. or longer depending on size and type.
When harvesting peas, do not jerk pea pods from vines since rough handling can cause plants to stop producing. It is best to snip clusters of pods from vines with scissors or pruners.
