Good to see you again! Something is nibbling at my peas so I need to plant more. It’s raining here in HB so it’s a good time to plant seeds.😊
My little wonders are already growing in the peat pellets! They grow so fast!
Hello from Central New York but tomato roots that you left in the pot won’t affect the peas?
Nice to see u again kim
Hey 👋 Lady. Enjoying this SoCal fall weather. Forgot all about peas on my new landscape. On it this week.
Green beans grow wild here in Texas around river banks. They crawl up the trees
I have bad luck with the wildlife loving my peas. The rabbits are ruthless and like to just trample them down. (nature tax)
Hi Cali. I planted my peas last week in zone 7/8? They’re growing already in the container. Yes
Thanks for showing how to plant peas. Going to be planting alaska peas soon.
I'm in Talladega Co. Alabama zone 7B. It is too late in the season for peas, first frost is in 2 or 3 weeks. I sowed seeds for three types of peas near the end of August. My goldern snow peas are flowering and producing pods. My Green Beauty snow peas were eaten by deer. After they are topped by hungry deer, they do not recover. I have white globe turnips growing in their place. I planted about forty Sugar Daddy peas, and have two small vines. The sumer heat is too hot for them to germinate. I'll sow them again, around February 20th when we are still getting fost, but the heavy freezes have passed. I just cleared out the pole bean vines from my garden, and now my tunnel trellis is bare wire until spring. The Blue Lake pole beans were huge success, producing beans until the end (I probably have enough beans to last untill summer). Next year, I am going to grow Red Noodle Pole Beans on one side, and Rattlesnake Pole Beans on the other side of my cattle panel tunnel (4w x 7h x 8l), and in my bean raised beds, Dragon Tongue, Oriental Yard Long, Tongues of Fire, and Golden Butterwax beans. My pepper plants are producing tons of peppers. They will survive a light frost, and with luck, will keep producing until mid December, when the area typically gets hit with a hard freeze. Some of the plants are huge, over four feet tall, and with trunks as thick as an inch in diameter. Next year, I am going to start my peppers in early February, indoors, and sow twice as many of them. I'll be growing four or five varieties of the smaller plants in a GreenStalk Tower, and five or more varieties of the larger plants in a raised bed, and growbags. California Wonder, Cubanelle, and banana peppers are on the permanernt list. My mother loves the shape of Leysa peppers (They loolk like a toy top.), so they are safe too. I haven't quite given up on Habanada peppers; they are going in the tower. I'm also growing Lipstick peppers, Rewia peppers, Etudia peppers, Lunchbox Orange peppers (Delicious), Big Red peppers, Yellow Monster Peppers, Ozark Giant peppers, Hungarian Yellow Wax peppers, and Corno Di Toro peppers. I'm going to be growing a lot of peppers (about 80 plants), then trying to decide which ones to keep on my permanent list—good luck with that.
I love sugar snap peas too! Planted a couple weeks ago…just seeing little babies.
