Peas EARLY VARIETIES 
Plant one Ib. to one hundred feet of drill, 80 to 120 Ibs. per acre. 
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 row 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 succession 1 to 2 inches deep, 1 to 3 in. apart in 24 to 36 in. rows, 20 
feet of double row is required per consumer.
