Post #4338277

Cindy wanted to have some sugar snaps last year, so as fall approached I planted the first week of October. The seedlings struggled at first (heat?), then grew well, had quite a few flowers the first week of Dec, got ONE pea pod (it was tasty) before frost 12/13 knocked all the flowers off.

I could try to fit a crop in this spring between last frost and summer heat with seedlings up 3/1, protect with a hot frame for a few weeks, then 60 days until the average daily temp would reach 90.

You folks in the warmer climes; might we get a crop in or would we just be spinning our wheels?

Thanks,

Frank
