I liked the video. What dwarf variety did you use?
I wish every gardener with a TH-cam channel would state their general location like you do. That helps the viewer to figure whether they can do what you're doing at any given time during the season.
Most that I watch do but yes!! Especially when it's titles like, "PLANT THIS NOW!" or "what to grow in such and such month." Especially for the sake of newbies, which is a huge chunk of who's watching these.
Here in Talladega Alabama, the temperature dropped down to 23F All my cool weather crops were covered and came through the freeze without any damage, including my snow peas. However, it was too cold for my warm weather plants, even inside my poly tunnel greenhouse. I lost all my tomato, pepper, basil, and marigolds. I spent the day sowing seeds tarts to replace the plants I lost, Here is a tip on planting peas. Count out the number of seeds for the plants you want to start and place them in water for 3-4 days. By this time, most seeds should have started germinating, and roots should be visible. Plant all the seeds regardless of whether a root is showing, or not. You should see sprouts in three or four days. I used this method this year, and got 100 percent germination.
I'm in Oklahoma and lost all my Tomatoes in our greenhouse last night due to drop in temperature here also. Thanks for the tip on soaking the peas longer!
Man, that really stinks. I'm sorry to hear that. I feel your pain. I lost all of my initial sowings of tomatoes from damping off disease in February, so all my transplants are 3-4 weeks behind. Looks like we have another freeze coming for us tonight. This has been a really troublesome year from the brutally cold December, crazy warm late January into February, and March has been consistently colder than February, which is causing even more trouble. I hope now that this triple dip La Nina has come to an end, things sort of calm down.
@@TheMillennialGardener Amen! At least it wasn't total devastation, like back in December. My lettuce, mustard, spinach, Asian greens, turnips, carrots, beetroot, peas, strawberries, potatoes, onions, Swiss Chard and kale, survived without any problems. And I got my cucumbers and squash planted on schedule. The tomato plants will be small going int o the ground, but they'll catch up. The peppers are going to be a problem. They won't be going into the ground until late April, off to a late start. They are slow growers.
Here in NW Georgia, lows have only gotten into the mid- upper 20’s. My peas outside are fine, as are my little kale plants just starting to pop. Carrots look “iffy.” I have peppers, tomatoes, lettuce, tomatillos, fennel, celery, etc., in the greenhouse. With the help of a Big Buddy heater, it’s stayed above freezing in the greenhouse and everything looks great, and I’m thankful for that. I sowed a whole lot of dwarf tomato seeds and those are expensive. I’d really hate losing that crop. Tonight is supposed to be the last really cold night, at least for a while. Hoping to start getting warmer weather crops into raised beds soon!
@@vlunceford I am definitely going to have to look into heating the greenhouse next winter. My biggest concern is moisture. When it is closed up, it gets as humid as a sauna, and drips water.
I zig zag plant my pea seeds one inch apart. I plant them along the back of a garden box with a trellis made of string across from one board to another ( obviously screwed into eack end of the garden box ) then plant a shorter crop like lettuce, radishes or carrot in the center and front. As soon as i get my second picking out of three, -2 weeks apart from first harvest, then i plant an additional zigzag 3 inches in front of the old ones. Two weeks later i harvest my final crop, then pull the old plants, chop them & toss on the floor of the area ill be needing nitrogen for next year crop rotation.
After the second batch is complete ( because we have full blown long winters here with deepfreezes ) i pile all my garden plant, chop them , sprinkle over the garden and gather enough leaves around town to cover with a solid foot of leaves. Toss on more sheep manure, toss netting over all of it, pin down with tent hooks and leave all winter till spring melts the snow. Then toss on compost and ,,,,,,, its ready- no till garden. Add mulch mix after planting.
Didn’t assume I could learn much about peas… but you delivered as always 😜👍🏻 And what a sign of trust from Dale to let you have his chewie 🥰
I’m glad the video was helpful! Dale is a good boy. He’s come a long way. He is very secure…except with thunderstorms and fireworks 😆
I plant my peas very close and they do phenomenal.
That is going to depend on the variety you grow. These are dwarf peas, and they climb all over each other and form a big ball of mass when they're too close. It makes it very difficult to harvest. Keeping spacing so they don't climb all over each other is key. If you grow a vining type up against a trellis, you may be able to get away with closer spacing.
As always, the advice shared is most valuable to we the beginning gardeners. Thanx loads sir.
I love how practical your videos are! Ive had good luck with pre sprouting the seeds and then planting.
For places with short growing season: keep in mind that peas need more warmth to sprout than to grow! So, you could start your peas indoors, and transplant them outdoors when they're 2-3 inches tall. I use half toilet paper rolls, so I don't disturb the roots too much.
I also never fertilize, I just add an inch of home made compost once a year (yes, my garden is very small).
Peas germinate best in soil temps between 50-75 degrees. That 60-degree range really is perfect. One thing you can do is cover the area with some clear plastic to intensify the warmth if your soil is still chilly. Or, you could cover it with a tarp for the first 5 days. That will lock in warmth and heat up your soil.
A bit of Bonemeal will help with the phosphorus.
do you have a video tutorial on the toilet paper?
OMG stay to the end….sweetness with dale is so adorable and heartwarming. Lucky pup.
This is why I love Melbourne weather. We can grow them from autumn all the way to spring non stop.
Although for the last few years, we also manage to grow a crop during summer, and we get hot summers. By growing them under fruit trees.
I'm introducing my classroom to 'Germenation'.. I chose peas for this experiment. I was nervous about the cold so I'm keeping everything in class for now. Thank you for the explanation that warmth is more important than light in the beginning.👍
Thank you. I was lunchin’! I did a lot of winter sowing so was waiting until Passover (Good Friday) to put anything into the ground. I’m glad I watched this cuz I didn’t sow any peas. Putting them in this morning. 👍🏽
Another excellent video! You’re always so informative, clear and concise with your instruction. I think you’re the best garden teacher on TH-cam. Thank you for your videos
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that. I'm glad the videos are helpful.
Agree!
Love your dedication, it’s beautiful
Thank you for posting and the visuals are very helpful. I will be overseeding for the first time now that you’ve explained it so well. I’ll be checking out your other videos ☀️👍🏼
Thanks for these tips! I’m in durham and growing peas this year for the first time!
I heard about you from my neighbor just in time because I was thinking of growing peas not just for my husband and myself but also for our ducks and chickens. I've been on a lot of sites for gardening but since I live in Wilmington NC you will be easy for me to follow. I'm really actually new to gardening with decent results and have also started a backyard orchard and I see you have videos on this also. So thank you
I’m not even in America and yet I find his videos so applicable, easy to follow and full of great information. Good luck with your garden this spring
Perfect! Now is the right time for us to plant peas. If you start them now, you should be harvesting before Memorial Day when the heat shows up. Definitely don't delay, though, because in another week or two, it'll start getting too late to start peas here.
I was able to get good production with my snap peas well into late June last summer, despite heat indexes off 115°+ eat indexes, thanks to heavy watering.
Thank you for simplifying fertilizing uses! As a new container gardener I've been confused about compost and feetilizer.
Very excited to be growing peas for the first time this year. Thanks for the help.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
One note about seeding. If you have critters like I do, the Chipmunks WILL find your seeds and eat them almost immediately. Cover them with a mesh screen small enough that they can’t dig them out. Because they will find them. I took off a covering today on some plants that had grown to about 3” but I had also re-seeded some gaps. Within 2 hours those seeds were dug up and gone.
Useful. Always learn something from this guy's videos.
Instead of over-seeding in-ground, start a module tray indoors and transplant out into the locations where the seed didn't germinate in the bed. That way you get ideal in ground growth and cover the chance of minor germination failure/weather/pest losses.
Dale is such a good boy!!! I love pea shoots. Been eating them for a long time at my local Chinese restaurant! It’s actually one my fa favorite things to eat at the restaurant! Have never grown peas so I’ve never made them at home but I think that’s going to change!!
Peas are one of the easiest to grow vegetables out there. They're a great addition to any garden since they're so low maintenance compared to most crops. Dale sends his love ❤
This is very helpful.
Thank you.
Just the best. Love your videos. Concise, easy to understand and relevant. Thank you!
You're very welcome! I'm glad the video was helpful.
Hi Antonio. I watched this Video, a very good video. However; I watched your video on 5 food crops to grow where you was talking on growing white (Irish potatoes). I lived in Wyoming in a valley where the snow get 6 to 9 ft. deep and hangs on until June. I learned then that potatoes (white ones) could be planted while it was still quiet cold. The potatoes would grow when we had warm spells and then freeze back when it would freeze again, on and on. The first time I did this I thought I am wasting my time, I figured they wouldn't make at all. Boy did I get a pleasant surprise I made the nicest crop of potatoes I ever made. A 20 ft. X 30 ft. area produced over 500 lbs. of potatoes. Jessie from Arkansas
The potato foliage itself is frost tender, so any frost or freeze will kill them to the ground. However, if the ground doesn't freeze solid, the tubers can keep growing perennially. In the eastern corner of my house, I dumped a grow bag full of potatoes there 4 years ago to harvest them. I guess I missed a tiny potato or two, because they keep growing back every single year like weeds. When we get warm spells here in January, they will germinate and pop up. Then, we'll eventually get hard freezes in February and that'll kill them back down, but they come back again as soon as it warms up again. It's a non-stop cycle. Potatoes can become self-sustaining.
You may find that you get some volunteer potatoes that over winter from years past if you happen to miss a few tubers during harvest. Bonus! Last time I planted potatoes was 5 years ago. There's still some coming up in that bed! 😊
I Love growing peas! The kids love to run to the garden and pull em right off for some garden snacks! Great video! Blessings and namaste family
Thank you! I appreciate you watching.
👍 Excellent presentation as always.
Thanks for the great tips! Your videos are always concise, interesting and very informative. I learn something on every one that I watch. As for eating pea shoots, they are Amazing!! I put them on my egg salad sammies!
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoy the videos. Peas are really versatile. From cooked to raw, there's a pea for everyone.
I just sowed pea seeds two days ago and will go back and fertilize tomorrow. Thanks!
You’re welcome!
Great information! I failed with peas last year and determined not to try again. However, this video has encouraged me to give another try.
You can definitely do it! They're so easy to grow once they germinate as long as your timing is right. They require little maintenance.
I love Sugar Snap Peas! I grew them for the first time and regretted only planting 2 plants. This time, I'm planting way more and I'm going to fertilize so each plant gives me more peas.
Peas are so easy to grow once they germinate that it's always best to grow more than you need. They're so low maintenance compared to most crops that it's a joy to watch them grow.
Just fantastic info! Might be the best Pea video on the web.!
Thank you! I'm really glad it was helpful.
An excellent video. Thank you. I live in New Zealand, and as of now,(10th April), we are into early autumn. I grow all of my crops in pots and tubs, with a fair amount of success. I have never grown peas before and would very much appreciate any tips you have on growing peas in pots and tubs. Thanks.
Another great video. I've been gardening for several years but I always learn a few tips. Thanks
Thank you! I'm glad the video was helpful.
I normally don't fertilize my snow peas, but with your video, I will try that this coming fall season because my snow peas are blooming and have fruits now
Great and helpful information, as usual! Thank you again, MG😊👍
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching as always.
Thank you!
thanks dude, keep up the good work !
Thank you. Great information.
You’re welcome!
Thank you from East Texas ❤
Great content as always! I just planted a bunch of sugar snaps with my family in Mobile AL.
Thank you! I think that timing should work out for you. The last few nights in Alabama have been 🥶
Just in time! Thank you!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Just planted my snap pea seeds yesterday.
Lil Greenhouse is 70-80's during the day in the sun but too cold at night for my tomatoes but shouldn't have any more hard freezes.
I like when all the youtube gardeners release videos of the stuff I'm planting... exactly the way I just did. That means I'm doing something right!
Edit: The only thing I didnt do was fertilize... but I added 5 cubic feet of new Miracle grow soil to top the bed, that counts.
Peas require very little fertilizer, so you don't have to worry if you missed a feeding. Sprinkle a little granulated organic stuff on top, water it in and they'll do fine. They don't need the sort of intervention that beefsteak tomatoes do. Peas are a joy to grow.
Thank you for the info, it was very helpful! Dale is adorable!
Glad you enjoyed it! Dale is the best.
Love the idea of using Sun Flowers as a growing climber for my peas.
I don't think that's possible in spring, because the sunflowers are frost sensitive. The sunflowers would have to be planted a month ahead of the peas at least, and by then, it's going to be way too hot for most places to grow peas. I don't think it would work in fall, either, because the sunflowers would probably die back before the peas were ready. I think you'd need to live in an area where you could grow peas in summer for this to work reliably.
I know sunfowers inhibit beans from growing... wonder if the sa.e is true for peas. Last year I planted a row of beans in the same bed my sunfowers reseed on their own, the multi flower type, and not one sprouted.
Thanks for the tips ! Hi Dale .
great video, thnx
Thanks for the fertilizer tips. Never thought about the 2nd application at thinning time.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Very very helpful video. I am excited to grow peas now !
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Fyi...I like your garden channel the best. Your more relatable too me than most. Good job thumbs up!
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoy the videos 😀
Thank you for all the great information!

Another fantastic video full of wonderful information
Thank you!
I love Dale’s wee coat to keep him warm out in the garden 🐶🥰
💚🍀
Dale has a narrow temperature tolerance with his short hair. Under 60, he is cold. Over 70, he is hot 😆
@@TheMillennialGardener Dale is a beautiful wee boy. I have a Chongqing….he’s half bald….patchy furred 🤣😂
Thank you. Sections so helpful and concise language, to the point. Extra seed every other hole; thin transplant later ..great tip. Fertilizing 5-5-5, 4-4-4 “Just make sure all numbers represented”. Half teaspoon. at: 1. sowing: fertilize in planting holes so available by thinning time (@ aprox 3 weeks old) 2. thinning apply so fertilizer available at flowering time. 3. (Optional but optimal) Fertilizing at flowering with a water soluble fertilizer (ie available for plant to absorb immediately) 18-18-21 as blooms appear.
Amish Snap Peas are SO GOOD!!! I planted them in February and covered them with greenhouse plastic during a freeze. They are now flowering.
Very nice! They’re my favorite vegetable to eat raw out of the garden…aside from Sungold cherry tomatoes, of course 😆
Is there link?
I am so glad I found your channel! learn so much!
I'm glad to hear that! Thanks so much for watching!

fantastic channel full of great infomation thks
U r totally awesome!!! Thank u so much for these pea planting tips. I have killed my pea plants for the last two seasons😢 Hopefully after using your tips I’ll do better. God bless u.
I'm glad it was helpful! Peas don't need a lot of intervention once they germinate. They do better being neglected than being given too much love.
I pre-planted pea seeds, put them n the ground yesterday, some are 6 inches long.i will hv 2 watch the weather for freezing u never know, especially in MO
Thanks for the insight.
You’re welcome!
Great video. You included lots of information
Thank you!
Love to see Dale and that chew looks delicious lol. Another great informative video. Thank you as always ❤
Thank you! You are my favorite! Also, I am in NC too east coast also!
Thank you! I tried to grow peas last year..Not very successful..I am going to try again..hopefully I will do better! You video definitely encouraged me to try again..😊
Outstanding! Peas mostly come down to timing. If you time them correctly, they grow with little maintenance.
Awesome video I learn something new with every video
Glad to hear it! Thanks so much for watching!
Thank you for this!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Great video, thanks for sharing

I love peas, I have grown them in my greenhouse in no dig bed, im going we get lots and lots!
Thanks!
You're welcome!
I love eating and growing sugar snap peas😋 Great video ❤🙏
Thank you!
If you germinate these peas by soaking them overnight then keeping them in a moist paper towel in a dark place for a couple days, you will not have to over-seed. You will know which ones germinated thereby cutting down in the step of thinning.
Great level of detail, as usual.
Thanks! 2-4 weeks before last frost. The goal is for them to germinate right around last frost or a touch earlier, because you can cover them if you get a little frost.
@@TheMillennialGardener Got it, thanks. I missed that in my first pass.
Love this, ty!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
Much thanks new to NC. I appreciate your videos. I have parrots and sugar snap Peas are there favorites looking forward to giving them healthy food.
Thank you! Welcome to NC!
Thanks for posting! I grow organic Cascadia and organic Sugar Daddy sugar snap peas in 7a Washington, DC. I grow organic sugar snap peas in containers. I've had quite good luck with that. One other tip I've found that helps is it seems that after organic sugar snap peas vines have been growing for a while, the top of the vines is full and healthy, but at the bottom 1 inch or so right next to the organic potting soil, there are pea leaves that seem to wither up and conk out (even though the 12+ inches above that of organic sugar snap pea vines above that are full and healthy) so I am careful to remove any dead foliage and remove any wilted pea leaves from the very base of the organic sugar snap pea vines. That seems to keep the organic sugar snap pea vines healthy and growing vigorously. Right now where I live in Washington, DC some of my organic sugar snap pea vines have dozens of white flowers set that are all setting organic sugar snap pea pods. Happy gardening!
Another informative video! I'd like to see a follow-up video on how you trellis them.
These are a dwarf variety, so I do not intend on trellising them. If you are growing vining types, you'll want to grow them up against a fence or trellis of some sort.
YOU'RE AWESOME DUD
Thanks for watching!
Great video! I love how you explain things in detail and your camera work is excellent, very helpful! I have a question...are the peas you sowed going to need trellising? ...and if so, how do you trellis them when you have them in a bed with several rows long and across like that? I always grow my peas along a fence or put up stakes and twine. Just curious, thanks! Love seeing Dale!
The peas I sowed are dwarf type, so they don't require trellising, or they can get by with very light trellising, such as 24 inch stakes with some twine run across a couple times. If you grow vining types, you'll want to grow them against some kind of fence. You can choose the varieties you want based on the space you have to grow them in.
You're awesome.
On the 3rd tip I have to add a few different ways I do it. When planting outside I open two holes in the same spot right next to each other. In the first I put the new fresh seeds I bought for this year and in the other I put the older seeds that I have from the previews sowing.
If I don't have older seeds, I'll still put only one in each spot and I'll sow a few in trays to cover any empty spots that didn't germinate.
If however I found local seeds by the pound (kilo where I am) I don't sweat it, it's so cheep I put 3 in each hole!
I over seed but instead of double seeding in the same hole I just plant 25% more At 3 inches and transplant missing ones. I really like your channel.
You can do that if you wish. I think it's faster to drop two in one hole, but as long as you thin them to a spacing where the plants don't climb all over each other into a big ball, you're fine.
I have a thriving bed of peas that is 2'x4', there are easily 30 plants, along with 4-5 garlic. Had a fall heat wave in in NC that stunted them and I just let the pods it produced fall to the ground to reseed.
Bro your channel is 🔥
Thank you!
Sweet dale ❤
He’s the best 🐕
Dale is a super hero! Wearing a red cape, lol!😂

Great video. Love peas, although they usually overwhelm me, so many to harvest so regularly.
Where I come from, we call that a good problem to have 😆
@@TheMillennialGardener Agreed! Snap peas sound like a nice idea this spring, good recommendation. Usually do shelling peas.
You are very nice and inspiring me to do better
Thank you! I'm really happy to hear the videos are helpful.
Great video! Can you do this everything you plant? Helps us new gardeners 👍
Of course. I have years of videos just like these if you search through my older videos from other seasons. I will make more as the season progresses, but there isn’t enough time to cover everything, so I like to refer back to older content.
I’m in Wilmington myself !
I use a Sharpie as a dibble, too. :)
Great video! Please post a fall green peas video as a reminder? Thank you!!
I will try to do so. But my season is longer and hotter than most, so it will probably be behind schedule and too late for many folks 😞
@@TheMillennialGardener I TOTALLy understand. I'm in 7A - inland - and our growing season is off for most of the rest of 7A. But thank you - seriously, thanks - for the reply!!
Prepping my pea bed today ❤🫛🫛🫛🫛🫛🫛🫛
I'm about to plant peas down in zone 9b it's early November. It was 83 degrees just a few days ago we're only finally getting into peas weather as usual. 🤣🤣
After watching I am now pumped over peas.
They're great to grow in the fall!
We no longer have cool summers here in the PNW, and this fact is due in no small part to the way those big box store fertilizers you mention are manufactured.
I got an early start on my peas this year up near Raleigh, most of them are already up and going hoping last night was our last freeze of the season. I am hopeful about the time I harvest the peas I can turn those spots around into maybe cucumbers or small melons to use the trellis and then hopefully about the time my earlier cucumbers and stuff are done I can replace them with peas for the fall. Guess we will see if the timing works out!
Monday night got really cold here. It got down to 26.4F, which is colder than any evening all February. I have to go back to January to find temps that cold. I'm not 100% confident we're past frosts here in Wilmington. I think it's pretty likely there will be more cold. We have a night next week forecast in the low 40's here and 30's in Raleigh, so it's still questionable.
