Damn , that sucks VB !

Getting a wrist rocket today. Yesterday I saw a big ass ground hog about 20 feet from the garden . I could see his drool dripping from his mouth from the window.

Raven ,
Is it too late to start some more peas? I wasn't sure if I could get in one more crop or if its best till wait till late summer for a fall crop.

not really as long as you give them ample water to keep the ground
they're growing in WET AND COOL....
in fact a drip hose laying next to the row is ideal ...
but before you let them sprout (presoak them 2-3 hours)
build a fence for them to climb because
pea stems are very fragile and "wreck" easily so trying to do it
when they're a foot tall almost impossible....

there's enough time to grow two- three crops of peas left.
fertilize one a week
