Planting & Care
Sweet peas thrive in cool weather and can be direct sown in early spring as soon as the soil can be worked, or started indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost for an earlier start. Soak seeds in water for 24 hours before sowing to improve germination. Plant seeds about 1 inch deep and keep the soil consistently moist until seedlings emerge. Provide a trellis or other support for the vines to climb.
Once established, water regularly and mulch to keep roots cool. Fertilize lightly if needed, but avoid excessive nitrogen, which can reduce flowering. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continued flowering. Sweet peas are toxic if ingested, so keep them away from children and pets.
