Green Arrow peas, scientifically known as Pisum sativum, are often overlooked gems in the garden. Respected by growers for their abundant harvests and strong resistance to diseases, these peas are a true garden delight. Their elongated pods can hold up to 11 sweet green morsels, offering a delectable taste whether enjoyed freshly picked, preserved in the freezer, or canned.

For successful cultivation of Green Arrow peas, it's crucial to plant them in well-drained soil with a pH level ranging from 6.0 to 7.5. These peas thrive in full sunlight but can tolerate partial shade. They are best grown during cooler seasons, directly sown in early spring or late summer for a fall harvest. Proper spacing is key; plant seeds 1-2 inches apart in rows spaced 18-24 inches apart to ensure good air circulation and prevent diseases.

To thrive, Green Arrow peas need consistent moisture, but overwatering should be avoided to prevent root rot. Mulching around the plants can help retain soil moisture and control weed growth. Regularly harvesting the bright green pods promotes continuous production, extending the harvesting season and maximizing yield. Following these guidelines will lead to a fruitful Green Arrow pea harvest throughout the growing season.

How to Save Seeds

Self Pollinating, therefore 50ft is sufficient to prevent crossing. When pods turn brown on plant and seeds rattle inside they are generally ready. Some larger growers often pluck them up with the roots and allow plants to dry out further however this is optional.
