The other blogs I read are great, but here in New Mexico, I can't relate to some things people talk about in, say, Canada.

The trellises don't take long at all. I use the wire fencing piece to determine how long each pea section will be, and then hammer the t-posts in on either end. I re-use twist ties that bundle new soaker hoses, shortened by cutting in half, to hold the wire in place top and bottom on each t-post.

I'd love to try peas next year... this year I'm getting them from the farmers' market and my CSA, but going out to grab a handful from my garden is sounding very alluring. About how long did it take to get the vine supports/fencing there? Can you "intertwine" other vine veg there?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5212502404088013274.post-24275835745254938692009-04-29T01:52:00.000-07:002009-04-29T01:52:00.000-07:00This was interesting....I JUST planted peas yester...This was interesting....I JUST planted peas yesterday, and its my first attempt at them. I always figured, why bother, but have read so many folks that said the taste can't compare with home grown. I, too, get killing freezes until June.
