Description
Mr Fothergill’s Pea (Snap) Sugar Bon Seeds, Compact, ideal for patio pots, pods can be eaten whole or shelled. Protect seedlings from birds with twigs or bird scarers. Water well during dry spells.
Sow outdoors where they are to crop, in flat drills 15cm wide and 5cm deep. Sow in a zig-zag fashion along the drill, allowing 5cm between seeds. Fill the drill with fine soil and firm down gently. Allow 60cm between rows. Keep moist. Seedlings usually appear in 10-18 days. Early sowings benefit from frost protection. Sticks or twigs placed either side of the row for support will make picking easier. Water well until plants are established. Successional sowings will ensure a continuous supply and long harvest. Pick regularly for the best yields. Can be sown late February under cloches for earlier crops.
