    Hello again,

    I have grown some peas this year for the first time and from reading the posts on here I think I have sown them too early.
    They are in a cold greenhouse and the tallest are about 15" tall now.
    Is it too early to plant them out into a container on a south facing patio?

    Thanks in advance

    The peas I sowed direct outside on 23rd March have only just germinated and are about 2" high, so I would say its now OK to get yours outside.

    Yep, get them outside!.. (especially as you are in Plymouth, you can get away with things earlier than the rest of us!) Mine are out!

    If you have any more seed, sow some now for a second crop.
