New beginnings and the success cycle Are you beginning to wonder what all the buzz about organic really means? Do you feel sluggish and have the need to add a little colour to you face? Why not grow your own food? I am sold on the health benefits, the taste and the assurance that I am what I eat.
Here are the 8 unique incentives about my vegetable rockstar, PEAS. 1. Care for peas special germination needs and pay attention to this consideration. Choose a legume inoculation and prepare that seed with care and attention. The full potential of production is astounding.
2. Tender root systems these peas have and they dislike transplanting. They produce well if directly sown and appreciate a good layer of mulch up against the fragile stems.
3. Tendrils are fascinating to observe, with the pea plants ability to hold its weight and support itself gives the pea plant a status of independence as well as symbiosis.Tiny tendrils swirl and please the eye with their fancy and creativity , but the 10+ft tall mammoth snow pea are.. well, sad without their trellises.
4. Every organic vegetable grown needs its own specific conditions.Watering specifics for the pea family are their love of water while in bloom.
5. The pea flowers are highly scented and the heavy, deep watering increases the number of flowers and therefore the number of peas you will happily harvest.
6. Yes , then there are the bees.With them lavishing in the pea patch, sharing the abundance of pollen with hundreds of other bees, without violence or hoarding they pass each other peacefully and share willingly with each other and ultimately give the gift to us.POLLINATION
7. Popular pea is a taste bud class “A”. Here I talk about a cool temperature vegetable that can provide summer time screening and is one of the sweetest, tasting vegetable we can grow.With all of the un-food out there, the pea takes the prize for sweet flavour freshness and as a matter of fact freezes exceptionally well too!
8. The final incentive for this sweet, stylish, and sustainable organic vegetable is their ability to fix nitrogen in the soil. They have fixing power. These nodules will actually feed the soil, not remove the nutrients from it.They are an amazing cover crop, and the reality is peas are a powerhouse for taking action.
