0

You can often hear about peas that they grow poorly. They were sown, but they did not sprout. They sprouted, but did not grow. The pods grew empty. Such situations happen with peas, but they can be avoided. Take a look at the five points from this post so that the peas in your garden always grow sweet and in large quantities.

Planting period. Peas like to grow in cool weather. It is recommended to plant in April and May. If planted in August, the early-ripening variety will also have time to grow pods before the cold weather.

Moderate soil nutrition. Do not overdo it with soil fertilization. In this aspect, it should be moderate. Peas do not tolerate excessive nitrogen. You can wait a while between fertilizing the soil and planting. It is ideal if you apply fertilizers in the fall and plant in the spring.

Watering. Peas love water very much, so they need frequent watering. Pay attention to watering at the sowing stage and during the pod formation period.

Enough space. Peas love space, so do not plant too densely.

Sun and light. Peas grow well where the area is sunny and open. This crop does not grow well in the shade, so the yield is also weak.
