Picking
fresh peas from your garden is always a treat. They are a good
source of iron and an excellent source of vitamin C. Approximately
5 seeds / gram.
Hints:
Plant seeds early in spring as soon as the soil can be prepared.
Sow seeds 2-3 cm apart and 2 cm deep. Do not thin plants.
For best results, harvest in early summer or fall when peas
enlarge pods. A 6 metre row of plants will yield approximately
5 kg of pods.
