Non hybrid

Frostproof

Growing tips

The sowing time differs depending on the variety. In general, early sowing is preferable, as diseases can occur more frequently with later sowing. Pre-cultivation approx. 2 weeks before the planting date is also possible, but not absolutely necessary. Peas need a climbing aid, trellises are best suited for this. They are also well suited as a pre-crop, as they are harvested early. You should take a cultivation break of 3-5 years with nightshade plants and other legumes.
