How to Get a Crop of Early Peas 
By cultivating intensively. Peas do not need any great 
deposits of manure in the ground, they gather the nourish¬ 
ment from the air (nitrogen), they leave the ground in better 
shape after giving a crop of pods and all you have to do is 
to cultivate and again cultivate, the more the sooner you will 
have pods to pick. By this method we hasten maturity of a 
crop from a week to 10 days.
