The final seeds that filled up my Sprout Starter were Snowbird snow peas, a Burpee exclusive. They’re supposed to grow only 16” to 18” high. So I will probably keep these in my Bounty or Extra.   |

I found a good coupon code for these and need to try something different, Mary.
I will be joining you when they arrive. I remember how much fun these were a while back.  |

I’m so glad!
I remember we did a GAL of Peas-In-A-Pot. They were fun but they were so small it wasn’t entirely worth it (both the yield and the peas themselves were quite small). I think these will be bigger. (I hope! Description says 3” peas - the others were more like 2”.)
I might also do some Prevail. Those are always good. But I might do them in an EB Jr since I’ve got 3 of those prepped and ready to go.

I had a great growing season this year once again for the Prevails(thanks to Mike for recommending that seed). Alas, the season here has ended for them. You will love them in the Eb. I just packed them in and got huge harvests. I tossed some I had in the freezer in a soup I made today.

They seem fast! If so, good for a quick project.

I need to free up a machine first. That or I need to make some machine shades first and put it in the spare room with the lettuce.

These guys are fast! My outdoor snap peas are like molasses in comparison (though they’re different kind, so maybe that why).  |

These are looking really good. Did you leave the pea seed t here so you know what is growing?

No, I just had already taped my seed packet up and put it away. And I was too cheap to toss it.  I should’ve germinated it, too, somewhere else, because I now realize I don’t have an available 6 pod machine. They’ll go in a 7 pod, so I could use one more. |
