Peas

​In my opinion, Peas are the most exciting crop of the early season, as they mark the first interesting crop of the year. 
 
Spacing & Yield
On 30” beds, 1 row of Peas can be grown; expect yields of ¼# per bed foot per harvest, with harvests occurring every 4 days for about 4 weeks
 
On 4’ beds, 2 rows of Peas can be grown; expect yields of ½# per bed foot per harvest, with harvests occurring every 4 days for about 4 weeks
 
Trellising
Peas require a pea fence to grow on.
