LAMBERSON'S ANNUAL SEED CATALOG, 1902. '29 PEAS. €7i\\i\W& •^or ear^y Peas the soil should be light and warm, but for general crop a moderately heavy fyWilUI v. soii is better. Fresh manure, very rich or wet mucky soil should be avoided, as they cause & rank growth of vine at the cost of the quality of the peas. Such soil is often the cause of early sorts maturing unevenly. Sow as early as possible a few of the earliest varieties on warm, quick soil, pre- pared the fall before. The general crop can be delayed until later, but we have met with better success from sowing all the varieties comparatively early, depending for succession upon selecting sorts that follow each other in ripening. The peas will mature earlier if covered only one inch deep, and where earliness is the most important thing, the may be treated in that way; but larger pods and more of them will be produced if the seed is planted in trenches three to six inches deep, covered with only one or two inches of soil, and when the plants are five or sis inches high, fill the trench level with the surface; this will secure deep rooting, prevent mildew and prolong the bearing season. If the peas are covered to the full depth at first, or if water is allowed to stand in the trenches, they will not make a good stand of health}- plants.
