Happy to see gardening videos that deal with the same kinds of problems and weather as myself in south Sun Lakes. Subscribed during the first video I saw of yours. Do you ever give tours?
Great tips!
Very good information without the usual useless hems and haws…
I'll be following you for a while. 😮
Thank you for your videos. I'm often curious which way arches are planted. Is one side of the arch facing south & the other north or are they facing east & west?
Finally I hear someone mention leaving seeds to mature and save for the next year! I do that with everything.
Thankyou so much for this video! I live in Mn and I love peas.
Thank you.
What’s the best time to grow peas? I live in Dallas TX
Nice garden, I’m also from Mesa nice to see someone else growing here. My fall crop of snow peas was sad, big plants, no peas. Not enough sun I think.
🥰🥰🥰thank you for the tips 👍🥰🥰🥰
Welldone Mam !
your job is great ❤
Excellent video. My best garden was when I lived in Tempe AZ. I grew an 18 lb Napa cabbage once. 65°f all winter is perfect. Garlic grew very large. Tomatoes, beans, peppers, potatoes, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, every thing grew excellent except corn had no kernels on the cops unless I hand pollinated the silks. I never could grow peas in TN so I did not try to grow peas in AZ. I moved back to TN can't grow peas here, maybe in a green house in winter.
I always start mine indoors as mice like to snack on them.
❤❤❤❤
Are you related to the lady who does the chicken landia YT page? Your voices are very similar as if you are sisters.
Mine keep turning yellow
thank you for this! Peas are truly one of my favorite plants; their vines are so whimsical and I find the tendrils such a cool feature of plant evolution. Delicious, too 🙂 Great video!
Awesome
I hope people check into planting of peas for a fall harvest too. You said you’re in a desert climate, but those in northern climates can plant peas for a spring and fall harvest. Would be good to mention that.
I also try to use them as a natural nitrogen fertilizer source.
The leaves taste great too…
Thank you very much for this info. I am planting peas every year at my place. The only way to grow them here is to seed them in seed trays first and then grow them at maximum height before planting them outside. The mice get rid of the seeds very quick when go directly from seeds. I find that it is a less problem planting them outside when they are mature enough in the trays, then planting them out in the garden, then sprinkle blood and bone about 300 mm away from the peas. Rabbits and mice don’t like the smell. That will keep them away for a while.You are right. Planting them directly from seeds without disturbing the roots, is the best way to do it.
How do we grow them in mesa during this time? I know our weathers been interesting. I dont want them to burn and wanted to know of tips for that? I see ur beautiful trolece and was wondering since i want to do the same. Ty for all ur amazing videos ❤❤
You’re so easy to follow. Thank you.
My sugar snap peas never make it out of the garden🥺 my kids grab ranch dip or dressing and eat them right out of garden. They even got their friends doing it to.😂.. They say it's better than chips n dip and love the super crunchy sound they made when they bite right into it. I wanna be sad n upset i can't get the peas in the house, but i love the kids having a healthy snack, the laughs and giggles with every crunch. Added bonus is now all the kids wanna grow them lol.. but i don't think any of them will make it to seed haha. I planted 12 plants thinking I'd have some for cooking but it never happens.
7:14 you can eat the leaves in a salad or soup, they are soooooo good!
