Planting & Care
Planting & Care
Soil & Water:Fill planting containers with well-moistened, good quality potting soil. Water well.
Planting & Growing:Sow seeds directly in deep containers at least 8" in diameter, or rectangular window-boxes at least 6" deep, once danger of frost has passed. Sweet peas grow best in cool weather and can handle light frosts. Plant seeds 1" deep and 2 - 3" apart. When seedlings are 2" tall, thin to about 3 - 4" apart. In mild winter climates, plant in fall weather to overwinter for spring bloom. Sweet peas bloom best before the weather gets too hot. When seedlings have 3 - 4 sets of leaves, pinch off top set to encourage branching for a bushy, full plant. Young plants will grow 8 - 10" tall, then cascade over the sides the container. It's critical to keep your container sweet peas well-watered and remember to fertilize them regularly every 2 weeks with a liquid fertilizer. Protect plants from slugs and snails. For longest bloom, remove faded blossoms regularly.
