Laxton’s Progress Peas 
PEAS 
A light, moderately rich soil is best for peas. For early 
peas sow in the fall, and for successive crops plant until 
July. Plant the dwarf varieties in single or double rows 18 
inches apart and about 2 inches apart in the row. The tall 
sorts should be planted in rows 3 feet apart. Sow the seed 
2 to 3 inches deep, and in dry weather soak the seeds for 5 
or 6 hours in water before planting. One pound will sow 100 
feet of row. Peas mature in 8 to 12 weeks.
