Peas Early Varieties 
ee 
’' @ Plant one Ib. to one hundred feet of drill, 90 to 150 lbs. per acre, or 175 
lbs. if broadcast. 
For very early peas the soil should be light and warm. Prepare the seed bed 
in the fall and plant as early in the spring as the soil can be worked. It is 
best to double rows about six inches apart and then leave a space of thirty 
inches to the next double row. Do not plant in heavy, sticky soil, as the seed 
will rot before germinating. Plant Early, Second Early and Late sorts for suc- 
cession. Many make too small plantings of peas. Plant plenty; 20 feet of double 
row is required per consumer. They are very fine food and take the place of 
many things you would otherwise buy.
