Growing & Harvesting Tips
Meteor peas thrive in both traditional garden soil and containers. For optimal harvest:
-
Sow seeds in spring for early summer harvest or autumn for overwintered spring crops.

Pick pods from the bottom up to encourage further pod development.
-
For surplus harvest, peas freeze well and maintain their flavour for later use.
-
Always harvest when pods are young to capture the sweetest flavour before sugars turn to starch.
