Finally took some me time tonight and have been browsing through a DT Brown catalogue that someone gave me....

I'm very tempted to try growing Petit Pois (my fave peas) this year and have found some called Calibra.

They are sold in packs of 50g... now my pea brain has no idea how many rows and of what length I'll get from 1 packet.... I don't want to go mad (cue DD's pea pics  ) but a decent crop would be nice.

Help

There is an average of 3000 - 6000 seed per kg, that's 3 - 6 per gram.

So - you'll have between  150 & 300 seed.

At 12 per feet, (I hope you've seen the recommended seed spacing before), that's a 12 1/2 - 25 ft row. With petit pois, you should be looking at the longer length.

Thanks again DD... that's a big help, and yes I remember your spacing diagram well

Had a quick poke through the sellers of said seed and DT Brown seem to be a lot cheaper than others, so go for it!

Thanks for having a look aound DD - very kind of you....

Seeds are now ordered (plus a few other veg packets that threw themselves into my online basket )

Nice useful analysis DD. Just wondering, Why do they call you The Pea God?

I like peas!
