How do I plant peas?

Question:

How do I plant peas?

Answer:

Sow seeds 1 to 1½ inches deep and 2 inches apart.  Peas can be planted in single or double rows.  Double rows should be spaced about 6 inches apart.  Double rows allow bush cultivars to cling and hold up one another.  Place wire netting or a trellis between double rows of tall cultivars to provide support.  When planted in single rows, the dwarf or bush-type cultivars should be sown in rows 2 feet apart and the tall growing cultivars 3 feet apart.
