Hi Luke, it would be so wonderful if you could do the exact same video but for beans!!! Which ones dry best for long term storage and which ones are great for canning? Which ones need to have string pulled out and even the best method for doing so!! Thanks and I loved this video. Very very helpful.
I grow sweet pea flowers mixed in with my edibles...the sweet pea pods are so hairy there's no way I'm ever going to accidentally confuse them with my smooth snap peas! And the sweet peas are so beautiful and fragrant. The smell of my childhood. If you're still worried about this, grow Luke's spring blush pea: beautiful pink flowers and great snap pea taste.
Luke, this time of year I am missing my garden. Can you please re-post, "Complete July Garden Tour - Its Like Living in a DREAM" from 4 years ago? We can all use a shot of joy.
I grew the golden snap peas last year and they were beautiful and great tasting. They have lavender flowers and yellow pods and were very prolific producers.
I actually grew the blue shelling snow pea last year and the pods were actually very delicious along with the seeds. I'd recomened trying it once, maybe harvest them a little immature. It was a very nice pea to grow! Beautiful colors and I highly recomend it!
Thanks Luke! Your timing was perfect. I knew about shelling vs snap but I had no idea there was a shelling/snap variety = 🤯. Also I had no idea there were self supporting varieties, I thought all peas had to be trellised = 🤯🤯.
COMPAN-YOS... Hi Luke, I have been watching and learning from you for years and I Thank You Very Much for what you have given to so Many. I want to give You something today in hopes of benefiting others. I call it COMPAN-YOS. It is a method of packaging your Companion Plant seeds with your Main Vegetable seeds. ( My story is that one fall I was impressed with the idea to store my marigold seeds with my tomato seeds. In doing this I had the companion plant seeds right there with my tomato seeds for easy planting in the spring. No trying to figure out, hunting for or forgetting to plant a companion plant.) So easy! Just a small plastic bag of companion seeds inside my tomato packet. Compan-Yos could benefit so many new and seasoned gardeners, growing Bigger and Easier :-) The very best to You and your staff, Miss Grandma Scott
I have grown both the spring blush pea and the golden yellow peas. Both delicious, but will have to move the fall crop to a different place in the garden this year as the golden yellow variety got hit hard with powdery mildew.
Luke, what about "tendril peas" or "garnish peas" which are grown for their shoots, flowers and/or tendrils and not to produce peas or pods? Would these be another type of pea in your classification scheme, or just a shelling variety that is harvested before the pods develop?
I would love for you to do a video on the different tomato varieties (cherry, slicing, beefsteak, etc.) so I can better select which I want to purchase. Many seed company put ounces or how many tomatoes they produce, but that doesn't clarify what size or type it is for me and pictures don't help. Thanks!
😁 This was a fantastic video! This will be me 3rd year planting a garden and I have never planted peas because I didn't know anything about them. I'm in the planning stage of this year's garden and there will definitely be a snap and a shelling pea this year. Thank you!
Thanks, as always, for the great information Luke! I would love it if you did more videos like this in the future, with the other things you. What would be especially helpful is if you could go through the different varieties of specific vegetables/fruits you have, explaining and highlighting the differences among them. You have so many things to choose from, which is great, but it could also be helpful to have some descriptive guidance when trying to determine which varieties to purchase!
Question: I am constructing a green house this spring for raising a garden in the winter. Is a different try of seeds required to grow off season crops in an enclosed environment without bees. I am hoping to be able to raise some pest ridden vegetables( zucchini for me) without daily inspection of each leaf.
Luke I had the impression at the end of the video that you were saying snap peas are grown for the Pod and not the peas meaning you eat the pot and not the peas. That's not the case is it? I usually eat the whole thing. Please clarify! Thank you.
Do you carry any or the “old stock” seeds that have not been tampered with like the giant crimson? I have started one of my giants in the house because I can’t wait for spring.
Great video. Can you please give us some expert tips on seed orginisation. There are so many videos out there we would just like to know how you guys organise them.
I am in Northwest Ohio and grow in raised beds. I don't really care if they are supporting or not. I am looking for a really sweet tender snap pea. What would you suggest?
Good video. What do you think about growing turnip for thr greens? Would they have to be harvested before the root was ready, or just have a small turnip...
I'm trying to learn if black eyed peas will cross pollinate with sugar snap peas? And if bush green beans will cross pollinate with snap peas and black eyed peas? I'm planning where to plant all three in a 1000 sq ft garden. Thanks
Here's a question for you: Why don't all seed companies label their seeds with these types, sub-types? I got a packet of Burpee pea seeds and it doesn't have any of that info on the packet.
Well, I'm confused. "Sweet peas are poisonous"??? And you don't carry them??? But how did I order MIGardener Golden Sweet Pea? Nevermind, you showed them later in the video...still confused about the name and that poisonous thing...
@@crystalcurtis3771 I don't think I'll ever not be irked beyond reason that someone at HSLDA tried talking me out of teaching Latin in our homeschool. She said it's not used anymore and that Spanish is the way to go. Dumb broad 🤬 She probably thinks cursive and analog clocks are antiquities, too, and should stay that way.
Such great info!!!! I tried my hand at peas 🫛 for the first time this past fall and had no idea what I was doing and got a teeny, tiny harvest off of some dwarf peas and then they got zapped by freezing weather. But I really want to grow them so this will help me moving forward. ❤
More videos like this please!! 🙏
There will be!
A video I didn't know I needed. *Grabs pen and garden notebook*
Not all heroes wear capes. 😂

Can you discuss beans next?
Thank you. 😊
Thank you Luke for covering all of the pea details.

Love this idea!
I love growing peas! Sugar snap, spring blush & golden sweet are my favorite varieties so far. Blue shelling worked as a snap pea too 👍
I have grown both the spring blush pea and the golden yellow peas. Both delicious, but will have to move the fall crop to a different place in the garden this year as the golden yellow variety got hit hard with powdery mildew.
I'm glad you clarified the different varieties of peas and why you don't carry sweet peas at your store.
Thank you for posting this video!
Glad to help. Happy gardening Helen!
I eat them right in the garden 🫛
They rarely make it indoors for us as well.
So do I. 😂 Snack for the gardener.
Luke, what about "tendril peas" or "garnish peas" which are grown for their shoots, flowers and/or tendrils and not to produce peas or pods? Would these be another type of pea in your classification scheme, or just a shelling variety that is harvested before the pods develop?
Love this episode. I’d love to see more episode like this talking about the differences of your varieties.
Oh, those Spring Blush look _so pretty!_ and I don't even like peas!
I finally bought $50 worth of seeds from your shop. I’ve been using commercial/big store seeds and haven’t had the best luck.
You won’t regret it!
I would love for you to do a video on the different tomato varieties (cherry, slicing, beefsteak, etc.) so I can better select which I want to purchase. Many seed company put ounces or how many tomatoes they produce, but that doesn't clarify what size or type it is for me and pictures don't help. Thanks!
Are the spring blush peas self supporting? Sorry if I missed that😅

very helpful. thq. i hope you will be able to do some videos for tomatoes and beans too

Great video! I know you said the terms are self explaining but I always confused snap. Also didn't know some were self supporting. So thanks!
Thank you! I've been struggling with which pea is what. Now I know how to determine!

Awesome video! I LOVE IT! I need to stop in Friday and grab some peas 🫛 and other seeds.
Love this video. More like thus would be great. Was wondering about beans and the variety of them. Thanks again. 😊
Love growing peas, trying bush this year
I only grow peas that can withstand south texas heat
Just wondering if you could do a video on what the best plants to put in a greenhouse, and when to put them in a greenhouse
The video is very useful, I had to take notes, thank you for sharing such good things. Hope you continue to make good videos like this.
This was excellent, thank you!!
Are the peas inside the Blue Shelling Snow peas the same purple as the shell?
Thank you for fixing/updating website by including Australia I’m Shipping List Luke😊
awesome video Luke... when will the sugar snap pea be back in stock... waiting to place 2nd order
Luke I had the impression at the end of the video that you were saying snap peas are grown for the Pod and not the peas meaning you eat the pot and not the peas. That's not the case is it? I usually eat the whole thing. Please clarify! Thank you.
Do you carry any or the “old stock” seeds that have not been tampered with like the giant crimson? I have started one of my giants in the house because I can’t wait for spring.
Can you talk about pea and bean boosters? What are they and do you need them?
Dammit, now I need more peas!
Explained perfectly! I needed this video!
Great video. Can you please give us some expert tips on seed orginisation. There are so many videos out there we would just like to know how you guys organise them.
Luck do you carry luffa seeds I enjoy all of your videos
Yes he does, I've bought them from him!
I would like to know which of the peas are particularly good for soup, if any.
I cannot grow Peas in fall winter or spring in florida
Thank you Luke! Can you tell me is the Spring Blush pea self supporting?
What about snow peas?
Will the Green Arrow Pea grow on a tomato cage?
Great information
Great video, thank you
You're giving a lot of great info but throwing some graphics right next to you would also be helpful.
I am in Northwest Ohio and grow in raised beds. I don't really care if they are supporting or not. I am looking for a really sweet tender snap pea. What would you suggest?

I'm trying to learn if black eyed peas will cross pollinate with sugar snap peas? And if bush green beans will cross pollinate with snap peas and black eyed peas? I'm planning where to plant all three in a 1000 sq ft garden. Thanks
Black eyes peas are legumes(beans). They won’t cross pollinate with green peas.
Is the blush pea self supporting?
I have grown this variety it will grow to a out 5 feet. It does benefit from trellising.
What are the yellow peas used in protein powders?
Here's a question for you:
Why don't all seed companies label their seeds with these types, sub-types? I got a packet of Burpee pea seeds and it doesn't have any of that info on the packet.
Not every seed company thinks like a gardener. We are gardeners, so we want to help other gardeners.
I gotnthe wando pea..is it bush or trellis? Doesn't say ?
Do I need a trellis for a Sugar Daddy snap pea?
Is the spring blush pea self supporting?
Not really no. It needs support.
Well, I'm confused. "Sweet peas are poisonous"??? And you don't carry them??? But how did I order MIGardener Golden Sweet Pea?
Nevermind, you showed them later in the video...still confused about the name and that poisonous thing...
Sweet peas as in the “flower.” L. odoratus, L. latifolius for example. It really is very confusing.

So confusing and in what category is a black-eyed pea, is it even a pea and is it a cowpea?
That's a strange name for poisonous peas.
Can't we all just give peas a chance?
Can we still call them colored peas? 😂
Such great info!!!! I tried my hand at peas 🫛 for the first time this past fall and had no idea what I was doing and got a teeny, tiny harvest off of some dwarf peas and then they got zapped by freezing weather. But I really want to grow them so this will help me moving forward. ❤
Thank you! That was very helpful 🎉
