CULTURE Peas may be planted in almost any kind of soil. In light soil during th< 
• warmer months they should be planted about 3 inches deep so as to be neai 
moisture. In heavier soils or in fall months plant about 1 inch deep, that warmth ma; 
penetrate and help germinate the seed. Row’s should be about 2% to 3 feet apart. 
Excessive moisture will rot the seed, so do not irrigate after seed is planted until th. 
plants are well out of the ground. Cultivate after each irrigation. Usual planting is a 
rate of 60 pounds per acre. One pound will plant a row of 150 feet.
