Product Overview
Amish Country Organic, By Rohrer Seeds
About- This favorite produces tender, sweet pods that are edible along with the small, tender seeds inside. Delicious raw as finger food or in salads, young edible podded peas can be cooked unshelled as garden beans, steamed or stir-fried period maybe frozen or canned.
When and Where to Plant- Select a sunny location and plant in early spring, as soon as the soil can be worked. Cultivate soil and enrich with vegetable food and organic matter. Continue planting at 2 week intervals until mid-spring. Plant again in late summer for a late fall crop. For better germination firm soil over seed.
Care and Harvest- Grows best in a soil with a pH between 6 and 7, and just a light application of fertilizer. Plants that grow over 24" tall are easier to maintain and pick if they are trellised. Water at ground level to reduce the probability of disease. Pick when seeds have enlarged in the pod and are still bright green. Hold vine while picking to avoid tearing the plant.
