PEAS 
Culture Sow in earliest spring, in rows 2 to 3 feet apart, drilling 
the seed 1 to 2 inches deep. Smooth varieties may be sown earlier 
than wrinkled varieties. Peas for market are seldom bushed. In 
home gardens, the taller varieties may be sown in double rows 
12 inches apart and supported with brush. One pound is enough 
for 100 feet of row; 2 bushels per acre. A quart weighs nearly 
two pounds. A bushel of smooth peas weighs 60 pounds; wrinkled 
peas, 56 pounds. The following peas are listed approximately in 
the order of their maturity, which will vary with climatic and
