 Peas are clearly not meant for my garden. I’ve been trying with different varieties of peas during the past 10 years and nothing seems to work. Before I’d had huge harvests of peas, but since the summers started to come abruptly and with full intensity, my peas don’t have the time to fully grow and give rich harvests.<\/span><\/p>\n

This year I’ve sown Korvin bush peas and sugar peas to see if they will work better than the varieties I’ve used over the past decade. The peas started great, they were growing strongly and started flowering very early. But, that was due to the very cold April and May. Temperatures were perfect for peas and both Korvin peas and sugar peas started with the first harvests. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n<\/p>\n
<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

But as soon as the first heatwave started the problems also started. Sugar peas started drying 5 days after the heat began. The flowers were still present but they started drying up and not making any pods. Also, plants started drying from the roots up and in just a week they were almost gone.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n
<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n


<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Korvin peas held on better. The first week they continued growing and I was really happy I found a new variety that works better in heat, but they also couldn’t survive the temperatures and the length of the heat. At the start of this week, they started drying up and I decided it was time to pull out all the peas and sow something new instead. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n


<\/span><\/p>\n

Peas clearly don’t like my weather and the heat. I think next year I won’t sow them anymore. I’ll try with broad beans instead. Maybe I’ll have more luck with them.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
