Culture of Sweet Peas: Sow as early in the spring as the 
ground can be prepared in rich, deeply worked soil with good 
drainage. Cover the seeds about 2 inches deep with fine soil and 
supply support to the growing vines before they grow too large. 
Prevent injury by green fly or aphids spraying periodically with 
Black Leaf 40, New Evergreen, Garden Volck, or Red Arrow (see 
page 195). Keep well watered during dry periods. One ounce of 
seed will plant a row about 15 feet long.
