Sow directly in place, 2 to 3 cm deep, every 3 cm, or in stacks of 3 to 5 seeds spaced 20 cm apart, in rows 40 cm apart. Plant out 3 weeks after emergence. In mild climates, sowing can be done in October and November, and up to January for southern regions.
Peas do not tolerate drought, so keep the soil sufficiently moist by mulching. Avoid over-fertilization.
