Sow seeds indoors 4–6 weeks before the last frost, or direct sow outdoors in early spring once the soil can be worked. Plant seeds about 1 inch deep in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Provide a trellis or support for the vines to climb.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the soil consistently moist during germination and establishment. Once seedlings are a few inches tall, thin to 6–12 inches apart. Water regularly, especially during dry spells, and mulch to retain moisture. Pinch out growing tips when plants are young to encourage bushier growth. Deadhead spent blooms regularly to prolong flowering. Sweet peas are cool-season annuals and may decline in intense summer heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e50 Heirloom Pastel Sweet Pea Seeds (\u003cem\u003eLathyrus odoratus\u003c\/em\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67795525632310,"sku":"FOLIA2-298","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7631656355_junh.jpg?v=1792671148","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/50-heirloom-pastel-sweet-pea-seeds-lathyrus-odoratus","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
