planting sugar snap pea seeds Snap Pea, 'Sugar Snap'(P. sativum) Sugar snap needs no introduction!! Bred by visionary pea breeder Calvin Lamborn at Gallatin Valley Seed in the 1970s, it introduced the public to a whole new class of pea, the edible podded snap pea. Few even bother to argue that it is still the best tasting, over 40 years later. Vigorous 5 6 vines start cranking out the peas just as Cascadia starts falling off.

(P. sativum) Sugar snap needs no introduction!! Bred by visionary pea breeder Calvin Lamborn at Gallatin Valley Seed in the 1970s, it introduced the public to a whole new class of pea, the edible-podded snap pea. Few even bother to argue that it is still the best tasting, over 40 years later. Vigorous 5-6’ vines start cranking out the peas just as “Cascadia” starts falling off. Early summer just wouldn't be the same without Sugar Snap. Due to years of neglectful production and processing, this variety had become heavily contaminated in the industry about a decade ago to the extent that we were seeing up to 30+% off-types (snow and shelly types) in what was commercially available. We did the work to shore up the purity of this variety years ago, and have been reselecting annually since 2014. We're proud to share what we feel to have been some of the best seed available for the better part of the last decade. The variety's only weakness is a lack of resistance to mildew in areas where that is a problem.

Growing Info

SOWING:

Seeds can be sown as soon as the soil can be worked in the early Spring. Some people try to push the season even earlier by sowing in flats indoors and transplanting, but we are not those kinds of people (peas don't love to be transplanted). Direct seeding is strongly recommended. 

Note: Fully saturated cold soil can cause big fleshy seeds like peas to rot, so waiting for a dryish spell in regions that see a lot of precipitation in the early spring, (like here in the PNW) is recommended for good emergence. 

PLANTING DEPTH:

1/2-1"

SPACING:

6-8 seeds per linear foot (thinning further is not generally needed)

EMERGENCE:

5-14 days @ soil temp 50-75F

LIGHT:

Full sun to part shade

FERTILITY:

Low to medium. Peas (and other legumes) are able to produce their own usable nitrogen from atmospheric nitrogen through a symbiotic relationship with bacteria that colonize specialized nodules in their roots. Too much soil fertility can cause excessive vegetative growth at the expense of pod set. High nitrogen can also produce more disease-susceptible plants.

ADDITIONAL NOTES:

It can be quite beneficial to mix pea seeds with commercially available bacterial "inoculants" to encourage the beneficial symbiotic relationship in the growing plant's root nodules, especially if growing on ground that hasn't been planted with peas before. This can increase yields and improve plant health. In gardens or fields where peas have been grown regularly, there are often adequate populations of the beneficial bacteria already present and inoculant isn't necessary.

Provide a trellis for support.

Peas love cool weather! Avoid sowings that will mature in the heat of mid-late summer, as peas will quickly become starchy and tough.

Helps you get a good night's rest
Color: Blue, Size: Queen Size Set of 2
These are my favorite pillows. I've had so much neck pain and headaches in the morning. This all stopped once I started using them. They hold up their shape and seem like they are good quality. My husband kept trying to steal my pillow, so I had to order him his own. You won't be disappointed in these pillows, and you'll get much better sleep.

Very soft!
Color: Blue, Size: Queen Size Set of 2
I like the softness of these pillows. They are too bulky for me but my husband loves his. I’ve been using a flat pillow for too long. I may just need to adjust to it.

BUY THEM NOW!! the search is OVER! 🥳
Color: Blue, Size: Queen Size Set of 2, Color: Blue, Size: Queen Size Set of 2
pillow whore here 🤭 and I very rarely find anything worth writing a 5 star review for but let me just save you the time of searching anymore for the PERFECT pillow!!! BUY THEM! 😍 I promise you will NOT be disappointed!! I have spend thousands on pillows over the years, trying to find the perfect pillows... As someone who suffers from debilitating chronic pain and who has had multiple neck and back surgeries I'm very particular about pillows & have such a hard time finding one's that are comfortable, not too hard, not too soft but also offer great support. I FINALLY found them 🥹 and my hubby is Italian and stays hot but gets even hotter when he sleeps so finding an authentic cooling pillow has seemed impossible UNTIL now!! Just wow!! Now Im adding more to my cart while they are still 70% off 🥳🤩
