planting sugar snap pea seeds Snap Pea, 'Sugar Snap'(P. sativum) Sugar snap needs no introduction!! Bred by visionary pea breeder Calvin Lamborn at Gallatin Valley Seed in the 1970s, it introduced the public to a whole new class of pea, the edible podded snap pea. Few even bother to argue that it is still the best tasting, over 40 years later. Vigorous 5 6 vines start cranking out the peas just as Cascadia starts falling off.

(P. sativum) Sugar snap needs no introduction!! Bred by visionary pea breeder Calvin Lamborn at Gallatin Valley Seed in the 1970s, it introduced the public to a whole new class of pea, the edible-podded snap pea. Few even bother to argue that it is still the best tasting, over 40 years later. Vigorous 5-6’ vines start cranking out the peas just as “Cascadia” starts falling off. Early summer just wouldn't be the same without Sugar Snap. Due to years of neglectful production and processing, this variety had become heavily contaminated in the industry about a decade ago to the extent that we were seeing up to 30+% off-types (snow and shelly types) in what was commercially available. We did the work to shore up the purity of this variety years ago, and have been reselecting annually since 2014. We're proud to share what we feel to have been some of the best seed available for the better part of the last decade. The variety's only weakness is a lack of resistance to mildew in areas where that is a problem.

Growing Info

SOWING:

Seeds can be sown as soon as the soil can be worked in the early Spring. Some people try to push the season even earlier by sowing in flats indoors and transplanting, but we are not those kinds of people (peas don't love to be transplanted). Direct seeding is strongly recommended. 

Note: Fully saturated cold soil can cause big fleshy seeds like peas to rot, so waiting for a dryish spell in regions that see a lot of precipitation in the early spring, (like here in the PNW) is recommended for good emergence. 

PLANTING DEPTH:

1/2-1"

SPACING:

6-8 seeds per linear foot (thinning further is not generally needed)

EMERGENCE:

5-14 days @ soil temp 50-75F

LIGHT:

Full sun to part shade

FERTILITY:

Low to medium. Peas (and other legumes) are able to produce their own usable nitrogen from atmospheric nitrogen through a symbiotic relationship with bacteria that colonize specialized nodules in their roots. Too much soil fertility can cause excessive vegetative growth at the expense of pod set. High nitrogen can also produce more disease-susceptible plants.

ADDITIONAL NOTES:

It can be quite beneficial to mix pea seeds with commercially available bacterial "inoculants" to encourage the beneficial symbiotic relationship in the growing plant's root nodules, especially if growing on ground that hasn't been planted with peas before. This can increase yields and improve plant health. In gardens or fields where peas have been grown regularly, there are often adequate populations of the beneficial bacteria already present and inoculant isn't necessary.

Provide a trellis for support.

Peas love cool weather! Avoid sowings that will mature in the heat of mid-late summer, as peas will quickly become starchy and tough.

A must have for active dogs
Size: Max Size, Size: Max Size
I normally do not write reviews unless a product is really good or really bad. I have a dog that thinks chasing balls is the only thing in life and unfortunately she has a mom that has anchor pins in both shoulders. We've been using this ball launcher for little over a year. It goes through about 32 dirty balls, 3 times a day and has held up amazingly. It is even full of dirt and still keeps on working, it looks like R2D2 went thru a battle. 😆 I recently bought a second one as a back up because I can't believe this poor thing hasn't given up yet. I rotate the balls because my dog brings them back wet and muddy, then they won't launch as far, so I knock some dirt off of a dry one and launch it. I would highly recommend this for active dogs.

DO NOT BUY! IT BREAKS EASILY.
Size: Max Size
DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY! The first time I bought this product it broke within a couple of weeks. The conveyor belt stopped spinning making the unit unusable. The second one I bought broke within the first hour. Again the conveyor belt but this time it would spin uncontrollably even when the unit was turned off. We used the balls included in the packaging and with supervision which is recommended in the product pamphlet. I tried to reach out to All For Paws but was unable to locate a working customer service number. For the price it should continue to work without issue. Very disappointing.

Your dog Might Not Be as Excited as You Are
Size: Max Size
It arrived and worked as expected. Throws a good distance, not loud & easy to use. However, my rescue Belgian Shepherd (24/7 ball dog) was totally scared of it. Work with her for a week but she would literally avoid even being in the same room. Being she is rescue you never know what happen to them in the past. Moral of the story, just bc you have a full-on ball dog doesn’t mean they will be excited as you are. Unfortunately had to return.

Good but not great.
Size: Max Size-EPTU Balls
Good but not great. We had to return. We liked it first out of box BUT as soon as the balls got damp from grass and slobber they were not launching well.
