Culture. Sweet Peas may be sown either in the fall or very early spring. If 
planted in the fall, sow late enough so that the plants will not appear above 
the ground before the ground freezes. Manure and water must be used freely 
in order to obtain good results. The manure should be applied after a heavy 
rain or watering.
