Cultivation advice Pea Purple Mangetout Snow Pea Shiraz

  • Plant where peas have not been grown for 2 seasons, digging in well rotted organic matter.
  • Sow from early Mar 2” deep in 6” wide rows 2 inches apart.
  • The distance between the rows should equal the expected height of the variety.
  • Avoid sowing during any cold or very wet periods
  • Protect immediately from birds.
  • Keep weed free.
  • Provide support by 3 inches tall.
  • Start picking the pods just as the peas inside start to form, early and regular picking will also improve the cropping and flavour of the peas.
