How to grow it at home (practical guide):
- Season and sowing: sow as soon as the soil can be worked in spring, when the temperature reaches approximately 5 to 7°C. Peas like cool weather and ripen faster in a temperate climate.
- Depth and spacing: bury each seed 2–3 cm deep, in rows spaced 25–40 cm apart. Between seeds in a row, leave 5–8 cm to ensure good aeration and consistent growth.
- Location: choose a bright spot, ideally full sun, in well-drained, light soil. Peas appreciate light mulching to retain moisture and limit unwanted weeds.
- Maintenance: water regularly to keep the soil moist, especially during pod formation. For planters, use a pot at least 30 cm in diameter and ensure good drainage.
- Harvest and taste: pick when the pods are full but still tender. Early harvesting guarantees crisp peas and a sweet taste; repeated harvests prolong the plant's productivity.
Ideal uses and storage:
- Serve fresh in spring salads, add to stir-fries or purees for a natural sweetness.
- Freeze after quick blanching to preserve color and crispness, without losing the sweet taste.
- Perfect for urban gardens and balcony pots thanks to its bushy nature and low support requirements.
Who is this for?
- Beginner and experienced gardeners who want a quick and regular harvest.
