Wrinkled-Seeded Early Peas 
Wrinkled-seeded peas are favored by many home gardeners, as well as market growers and canners, because of their 
extra sweetness and better quality. Contrary to popular belief, they can be planted as early as the smooth-seeded 
varieties—as soon as the soil can be prepared, but do not sow in cold, wet ground or seed is liable to rot.

GARDEN PEAS © 
Every home garden can easily produce enough peas to supply the table for many weeks. 
For a continuous supply sow the early, midseason, and late varieties as early in the spring 
as the soil can be prepared. Both wrinkled and smooth-seeded types can be planted early. 
Besides sowing at the beginning of the season varieties which will mature one after another, 
also make succession sowings at intervals of 10 to 14 days up to about June 1. Sow again 
in August for a fall crop. Cover the seed 1 to 2 in. deep. Provide supports for the tall- 
growing varieties. Inoculation of seed with Legume Aid before planting hastens maturity 
and increases the yield. A pkt. of seed will sow 20 ft. of row; 1 lb. 100 ft.
