Strike Pea
You are going to smile harvesting this classic English shelling pea. A super early, huge producer so sturdy it doesn’t need a trellis- it’s almost too perfect.
JOY MAX QUALITIES:
This pea is more bushy and compact than other peas you’ve probably grown. It doesn’t need trellising but it will appreciate a little staking.
You can plant Strike much earlier than other peas as it does well in cold, clay soil.
Prolific shelling peas mature just 55 days after planting and have 6-7 plump dark green peas per pod.
High resistance to Fusarium wilt race 1. These seeds have also been treated to be less susceptible to rotting in prolonged cold, wet weather.
You can eat the flowers and tendrils from peas. Add the fresh young shoots to salads and stir frys.
Planting Information: Start indoors under bright light 8-10 weeks before last frost. Sow seeds 1/4” deep., 2-3 seeds per cell or pot, and then thin to the healthiest seedling once they are an inch tall. Use a heat mat to speed germination. It’s best to start peppers indoors because, unlike tomatoes, you shouldn’t plant them outside until nighttime temps are above 60°F (15°C). You need a soil temp of 65°-80°F for best results.
