How to grow Sweet Pea Spring Sunshine Peach seeds

Choose Your Planting Method

• Indoors: Sow 1 inch deep in deep pots 4–6 weeks before the last expected frost (sweet peas form long taproots and dislike root disturbance).
• Outdoors: Direct sow in early spring as soon as the soil can be worked, or in fall in mild-winter climates.

Prepare Your Materials

• Deep pots or seed trays (if starting indoors)
• Well-draining potting mix or prepared garden soil
• Spray bottle for misting

Sowing the Seeds

• Soak seeds overnight in room-temperature water to soften the hard coat (nicking with sandpaper also works).
• Sow 1 inch deep; sweet peas germinate best in cool soil and do not need light to sprout.

Provide the Right Conditions

• Light: Bright light once seedlings emerge.
• Temperature: 55–70°F (13–21°C) — cool conditions give the strongest germination.

Germination

• Seedlings typically emerge in 7–21 days.
• Grow seedlings on in cool, bright conditions; they tolerate light frost once established.

Transplanting

• Plant out after the last frost, handling the root ball gently to avoid disturbing the taproot.
• Harden off for about a week before planting out.
• Space plants 4–6 inches apart along the support.

Care Tips

• Sun: Full sun.
• Water: Keep soil consistently moist; water regularly during dry spells.
• Fertilizer: Plant in rich soil; feed monthly with a balanced fertilizer during the growing season.
• Set up a trellis, netting, or wigwam at planting time; pinch the growing tips after 2 sets of leaves for bushier plants; cut or deadhead flowers often to prolong blooming.

Note: Sweet pea seeds and pods are not edible and are harmful if eaten.

Bloom Time:

Late spring to summer, about 75–90 days after sowing.
