Hi every one, need a bit of advice please, is it too late to plant pea seeds today, new to the growing bit just got our allotment. We have sprayed half the ground with roundup, and started the digging  :oops: . We are complete novices and don't really know where to start, any advice would be great.  :lol: Do we have to soak the peas first!!!

Put the peas onto damp kitchen paper in a plastic tub (with lid).  Keep at room temperature indoors.

As soon as they sprout (2-3 days only), you can plant them directly into the ground (or into wee pots if you prefer to bring them on a bit).

You can sow more in 2 weeks time & again 2 weeks after that.

Hi, thanks for the advice about peas, should have looked on here first as some one told me to soak the peas for a few hours then plant, and that is what we did, just got to hope for the best with this one. :roll:  also found out today to our horror we have got moles!!!! :cry:  don't know what to do about them. HELP!
