It's usually Douce de Provence that's autumn sown - does he cloche them when planted in December, or sow them in the greenhouse, as they need a soil temperature of about 6C to germinate

Hi m1ckz, Why not ask?  If you tack the question on the back of a positive remark, many people will be more than happy to share their info.  Something like "Wow, your peas have done great, can I ask what variety they are?" usually works.

[m1ckz]

he heeee  thats the first thing i did,,,but he didnt know,,his m8 saves seed an gives them to him

[m1ckz]

and i thought this is what we joined here for,,,,to ask an learn

[mumofstig]

but next plot man might have known the exact variety 
we can only guess

Why don't you ask him nicely if he would save some seed for you for next year, you could always swop for something else.

[m1ckz]

yes good idea

I planted mine end of last November, the Pea veriaty was called 'Meteor'.

sow direct in soil, netted when young to avoid mice and birds,

they are now producing heavy

recomand it
