Taking inspiration from self-sown specimens, I started these snap-peas -- 3rd generation saved, unknown var. -- in early autumn, in situ, amid deep crushed sweetcorn debris, no clearing. The only thing cleared was the wire pig/badger fence when the peas started to go UP it. Whereas I want them to form a low-maintenance, easy-pick CASCADE down towards the path below the terrace. As they did themselves from a compost heap 2 years ago nearby.

Last year, I started them in pots and transplanted them out about now, fraction of the size, and within a few weeks all eaten by slugs. Lesson learned. Their stems are too woody now, and they did their establishment while too cold for slugs.

I planted peas, radish, beets, arugula, and spinach yesterday. Most of the garlic is up too.

Mushy Peas

An acquired taste for most.

For me, however, they're the food of the gods.

At #PASCA [Plant And Soul California] we planted some peas last Oct. It takes longer in the winter but we do get blossoms and peas.
