24 Aug 13 craig (Australia - temperate climate)
let a few snow peas go until the pods are ready to open as this is naturally how they reproduce. replanting peas from a successful plant gives 10 times better seedlings than mass produced seedling factory types. The new plants are produced from a plant in that soil and climate not a greenhouse in another state. Try not to use any pesticides and hang a couple of mothballs to keep possums away. liquid fertiliser once a week is a certain winner.
