There are two types of pea seeds offered. We offer low and high varieties. The advantage of a low pea variety is that the plants do not need climbing support.

High peas do need a climbing support, in the form of a support net or brushwood. The yield is slightly higher, harvesting is easier and after a rain shower the plants dry up faster.

Pea seeds can be sown between January and early May.

How do you grow peas from seed?

It is good to plan a bit with peas. They can be sown in two weekly intervals. This way you can spread the harvest and harvest longer (from mid-May to the end of July).

Another important tip: do not overwater your direct sowing seeds, peas do not like wet feet and could rot.

If you want to pre-sow early in the year, deeproot trays are ideal.
