Peas

i can send you some telegraph ones ( really tall ) so good crop but uses little space
grow well in spud bags tall just water well in warm weather
and these you can have an early a main and late crop

 

There are basically three ways to store peas.
1 - Let them dry on the vine and then shell and store in airtight containers.
2- Freeze them
3 - Use a dehydrator to dry them and then store in airtight containers, self-seal sandwich/freezer bags are ideal.

We use the latter method and they keep for at least two or three years.

BTW - I got a couple of potato grow sacks from a Pound Shop last year and while they may not have been a pound they weren't much more.

 

If you shell them, blanch them and then freeze them they are nearly as good as fresh.

 

Peas never make it into the house here. They get eaten before they get that far..........!

 

Home frozen is pretty much the same as supermarket frozen.

 

i shall pop seeds in the post for you i shall send you a few different to try so which you little better

 

grow pop eat
grow pop freeze
just dot keep em hanging about ( chance would be a fine thing )

 

My friend had great success growing the dried peas you buy in a supermarket: I might give those a go this year

 

dunno what sort of bags you're after exactly but can't you pop into your local chippy and get em to save you some? or are those thick papery bags only good for storing potatoes in?

Or just get a bag of compost and use the bag it comes in? I read somewhere the other week about someone using black bin bags doubled up for growing potatoes, that'd be alot cheaper than forking out 15 quid

 

you can but this kind from nearly all cheap shops now for under a fiver most only £1 or £2
