That's interesting about the yield with the peas. I love them so much, though, that even a small yield later in the season would be wonderful...we were definitely missing them by early September this year.Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15949946977793864054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2884216770926932676.post-23289418380911795232014-12-21T12:27:19.635-05:002014-12-21T12:27:19.635-05:00I have had the same experience trying to grow peas...I have had the same experience trying to grow peas in a block in a raised bed. They always seem to grow taller than the catalog description and flop over. Next year I am going to try just a trellis. I also read in a catalog somewhere (maybe Fedco?) that planting peas early allows them to develop a bigger root structure. Peas planted later won't yield as much.David Veltenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07710293718143454000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2884216770926932676.post-47493010651318201522014-12-13T11:44:50.991-05:002014-12-13T11:44:50.991-05:00You and me both!

I've already changed my mind twice about how I'm going to lay out the pea bed & have a feeling that I'm not done yet.Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15949946977793864054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2884216770926932676.post-77721114440233508342014-12-13T09:08:28.630-05:002014-12-13T09:08:28.630-05:00I just read your leaning tower post as I am trying...I just read your leaning tower post as I am trying to figure out what approach to use next season. I tried using just bamboo poles and it did not work well for me so I definitely need string or netting and a better trellis setup. I have been reading TONS of info on this and can't seem to make a decision - but I guess I still have all winter to work something out!Susiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10354350096358468967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2884216770926932676.post-28333443787659328822014-12-07T20:37:51.045-05:002014-12-07T20:37:51.045-05:00Ugh...it really bothers me when I can't figure...Ugh...it really bothers me when I can't figure out why a crop did better/worse than prior years. I'm sure there will be lots of instances like this in the garden over the years and I'm just going to have to learn to live with it.Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15949946977793864054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2884216770926932676.post-41235371901144863862014-12-07T18:23:30.878-05:002014-12-07T18:23:30.878-05:00I find that my harvest from one year to another va...I find that my harvest from one year to another varies a lot.
