Advice from La Semence Bio® : the pea will fix nitrogen in the soil for your next crops of leafy vegetables.
Ridging, hoeing the rows of peas, and making sure that manure is incorporated well before planting. Peas are sensitive to excessive fertilization. Make a green manure or apply a very mature organic fertilizer in the fall.
