Recently (maybe this week) on Gardener's World, they were showing you what to do in this situation. In essence they said nip out, with your finger...
They'll flower - you might not get huge flowers on 9"-10" ramrod straight stems but hey ... sweet peas are sweet peas and I rather like the twisty...
I agree, it is a wonderful plant, but no matter how wonderful - I just 'aint got the room! My grasses reach a far more modest 4' (5' at a pinch!)
I had a similar problem last year, asked the same question and Alice was kind enough to give me this reply: ' ... dissolve 1 tablespoon of Epsom...
Not sure where you are bumbles, but even down here in my part of the country, I don't expect my sweet peas to start flowering for another 3 weeks...
