  Sow from March to June, regularly every 3 weeks for continuous summer crops. Sow in well prepared soil, in a wide drill 5cm deep and spaced about 5cm apart - allow 75cm between each row. Support the growing plants with pea and bean netting or pea sticks and water regularly, particularly once flowering commences. Ready to harvest from June to August, if you pick the pods regularly it will extend the cropping period.
