PEAS
Soil pH 5.5 to 6.5 - Sow directly outside in the garden 6 to 8 weeks before the last spring frost, planting a few seeds every 3 inches in a row. When the seeds sprout, thin to one plant every 3 inches. Before planting, set up either stakes or a trellis for the peas to climb on while growing. Remember to keep the soil moist after germination, and weed often. Do not add extra nitrogen to the soil, as this will promote leaf growth at the expensive of pea production.
