Russell-Heckle’s 
GARDEN PEAS 
Cnltuxe—One pound will plant 100 feet of 
single row; 60 to 76 pounds for an acre. A 
light soil is best for the early varieties, a 
heavier soil that will retain moisture for the 
main crop. Well-rotted manure may be used to 
enrich the soil. Peas are a cool weather crop. 
Plant the early smooth varieties, Alaska and 
Extra Earlies as soon as the ground can be 
worked in February. The wrinkled varieties should be planted in March. 
Make main crop plantings 3 to 4 inches deep. Peas are usually planted 
in double rows, 12 inches between rows and 2 to 3 inches between seeds. 
Plantings should be made every week until hot weather.
