we have had an exceptional year with our pea crops this season full pods on both varieties Kelvedon wonder and Hurst greenshaft we prepared the ground with a granular fertilizer prior to planting the peas that where raised in six packs in the greenhouse so is it a good year for peas or have we struck lucky with our pea crops this season 

and have you other gardeners found its good year for pea crops to

[Nobbie]

Yep, Kelvedon Wonder sown in guttering to avoid hungry mice and then slid into a trench. Didn’t bother with any fertiliser, but just harvesting a good crop of full pods with no sign of maggots . I think the early sown one seem to escape, so I only sow one batch and then move to mange toute.

My Sugar Ann were fantastic, this year. Today I picked the first few Alderman tall peas and a few had wrigglers inside. I'll have to be careful when I shell them...

It certainly is a bumper year for peas. We’ve eaten loads and had 3 blanching sessions for the freezer.  And there not finished producing yet.

Same here with the wrigglers, Mum - chucked half a picking away just now!

Disappointing crop, but there again, I admit that I didn't help the situation by letting the plants get to 7'0" before stopping them, and anyway, they've nearly all died out...

Going to try a late crop of runners to grow on the frame!
