    Felt like I was sitting on the porch with mamaw & papaw helping shuck peas. So nice to learn at the feet of elders. Thanks for showing the difference between what to pick for eating and seeding. Also, the last tip for seeds that will yield sweet veggies. I love learning those kinds of tips & knowledge. That knowledge comes from experience; so valuable. Thanks, y'all.

    When I was a child I was banned from shelling, I ate more than I put in the bowl. Love them English peas!

  • @mamat8832

    We grew English peas about 3 years ago. The kids "helped" shell peas and ate most of them before I ever saw them because they were so sweet. Really enjoyed growing those.

    Y'all just taught me A LOT! Not just about peas and corn but about my marriage and it's a lesson I needed. My husband drives me nuts with some things cause he's like Danny. LOL (Love you bunches tho 😆) If something isn't perfectly the way he thought it should be he sees it as failure or no good. I'm the opposite. I see "something is better than nothing." Obviously if it's something we're growing and it doesn't work well enough to be viable for work and expense I won't do it again but I'm still happy with small successes. I love how you guys don't get aggravated with each other's views and just giggle and move on. I'm gonna take on that attitude. I'm not going to see it as him always being a "negative Nancy," and just see it for what it is...a different prospective. You guys are just wonderful. Thank you for all you do. You know I adore you both dearly!! God Bless you always, love and hugs!! ~Lisa

      Deep South Homestead I agree totally. Watching you guys made ME see how wrong I'd been. I've been taking it personally and it's not. It's really not. It's literally just a different view point. When you stop and think it through you understand. Sometimes it just takes seeing it through someone else's eyes for you to get your head outta your back side! LOL 😂
      You two absolutely the perfect roll models for marriage. I'm so thankful God set you in my path. I'm forever grateful. Love y'all! God Bless.

This was very helpful video, This is only my 2nd year of home gardening, and this yr I got some Broad beans ( here in the UK ) was thrilled when they started to grow, but was not sure when to pick, now I only have 3 plants in total... but thanks to your video my peas look ready to be picked....... I remember shelling peas when I was a little girl with my mom, brought back a lot of forgotten memories.... Thanks you guys

    If you're going to freeze the peas you can blanch in the shells which makes them much easier to shell.

The advice you are giving regarding the stages and when to pick is what I learned from my aunt who used to take us. Thank you for this information, hopefully it will benefit others.

    I watched from the beginning all the way to the end.. So interesting. When I was young my parents planted both of our fields with gardens it was up to us kids to do our chores then head to the garden & weed. I can remember picking Mom's English Peas & like you say when you pull to hard it rips the plants. Oh my goodness you would of think Mother was going to lose it... I was taught at early age how to pick veggies from the gardens.. Mother & I would do all the persevering on it. Wonderful Memories.. thank you for the awesome tips on the English Peas... :)

    Since they have shallow root systems, how well would they do in raised beds Danny? You might just set some teepee sticks in a raised bed & have better control on the mildew (also easier to harvest). Also, I'm interested in know what kind of plants you have on the outer rows...is that lemongrass? :)

    This was a great tutorial! Thank you! You answered all the questions I've had popping around in my head about growing English peas. I'm going to give some a try in my garden. It's amazing to see you folks harvesting stuff already. Here in Connecticut it's just the time to start getting some things planted. The good thing is that I'm getting lots of great hints from you two before I get my stuff planted. You're great teachers. I hope this is a wonderful growing season for you . - All the best. ~ Theresa

    @davidcramb5793 5 років тому

    I'm really loving your posts on peas. It's interesting to see how the same crop is grown in different places, and the problems we face to get a decent crop.
    Your peas look like a dwarf variety, and they have smaller pods than our ones. We usually have 6 - 10 peas per pod, and the plants grow 8ft high. You have far more sunshine than we get, with a longer season, but we don't have the humidity. We rarely have really dry conditions either, so watering isn't so important. I couldn't plant outside before April, till the risk of late frost's has gone, and the last pick would be late September, but that's only because we have early/late varieties that we plant. Our biggest threats are Pea Moth and Pigeons, not mildew.
    I really marvel at God's creation, and the way he gives us what we need to survive. All we need is a little hard work and the sweat of our brow. God Bless 👍

    Luckily, I planted my peas in January and got 2 weeks picking. I have already had to pull them up because of powdery mildew. It had gotten so thick on them that it was getting on the peas and I couldn't stand how they felt. I didn't get any powdery mildew last year. I planted Little Marvel last year. But their bush habit was messy and inconvenient. I run my thumb down the pea pod and if I can feel the definite pea ridges, I pick them. The puffy ones don't have the ridges. Were yours little marvel?

    Thank you for info. I'm growing Little Marvel peas. Last year, something ate the seedlings while still very small. This year I covered them and just this week saw pods. When I buy peas to eat at the store, I prefer early or petite peas, because they're less sweet. Do you know what kind of seed peas I should buy to grow the less sweet ones? And are they still considered English peas?

    How do I know if a pea is an english pea? Last year I grew Burpee Sugar Daddy. This year I purchased Burpee Oregon Sugar Pod II. Which now looking at the package look like a stir-fry type pea and not a canning or freezing type pea. I'm in northeast NY and planting zone 5a so haven't planted any peas yet if I should get a different variety. Thank you.

    Doesn't planting them so close together promote the mildew? If you spaced all the rows wouldn't that help promote airflow? And that's a very low growing variety have you tried growing them on arches, a taller plant?

      SHARON Or I end up watching one & a half times because it is packed full of information. I really liked this video. Still very wet here & it doesn't look like the rain is going to let up any time soon. Maybe after Mother's Day I'll get to start planting.

    Do you have problems with deer in your pea patch since you don’t have a deer fence.

    I'm in Houston. I've struggled with English peas for the last 4 years. I sow middle Feb and I have till about mid April till the heat kills 'em off. When do you sow?

      Logans Homestead Yes we have mole crickets.I have learned to take when i water the garden or right after a rain to sit and watch thats when they come out to tunnel.and when i see them i grab them by hand while they are tunneling.Its the only way ive found to get rid of them without chemicals.I know it sounds wierd but i get them that way.Thanks

    Danny, how do you decide what you need? Like you wanted 400 lbs of potatoes, and now it is 65 jars of English Peas. I understand for example tomatoes, one year produced enough to eat for the summer and the next year I produced enough for 2 years. I am just unsure how you decide how many you need.

    • @DeepSouthHomestead

      Susan Beaulieu We start out with one jar per week of the year.Then if we really like it we start adding jars from that point till we get to where we are getting what we need to make it through a year.Then we add some extra in case of a crop failure one year.Thanks Susan

    I'm just curious. Is it possible they got disease because of less air flow?? Thank you

    Danny, How many pea plants does it typically take to feed you and Wanda for the year? I'm growing them also but am a new gardener so am trying to figure out what I would need to plant. Thanks for your videos!

    • @DeepSouthHomestead
      @DeepSouthHomestead  6 років тому +1

      We have 6 rows about 60 feet long. If they produce well, they will feed us for a year. We like to can 60 pints if possible. That is 2 a week.

    Does your trellis material clean up easily for reuse?
