My grandma gave me some cow peas that are 20 years old and were grown by my great-grandfather, who was an avid gardener. I'm going to be planting them myself this year. Could they still sprout? I'm told that he dried them out and prepared them for planting, but he did so 20 years ago.
Wow, that's amazing! That's very special to you! Yes, they should grow. Cowpea seeds are very resilient. Plant them, and at least some of them should sprout. Make sure the soil is warm enough, or start them under a grow light. Keep a few seeds in case something happens to the first batch. Best wishes!
Great video, showed planting, progression, all the way to harvest. Thank you for taking the time to make it 😊
My pleasure! Glad you enjoyed the video! Happy gardening!
I plan on growing both cow peas and Seminole pumpkin in the summer good to know I should be careful not to plant them too close together 💚🌱
For sure. Seminole pumpkins take over everything.
Молодец, Динара!
Спасибо, Мурат. 😊

@@millsfamilygardening2634 I just checked and they're actually not cow peas. They're Calypso beans.
@@Supasmartguy yes, go ahead and plant them when it's time to plant in your garden zone, and they should sprout.
For maximum germination, try the paper towel method.
Nice cowpeas
Thank you!

So it took about 4 months?
It normally takes less than four months to start harvesting cowpeas.
