Cultivation method Nairobi Sugar Snap pod

Sowing pods

Sow directly in the field from February to April. Sow in lines or rows spaced 50-80cm apart and space the seeds in the row 3cm apart. Make sure that the soil remains sufficiently moist during growth.

For all capuchins, peas and pods, an early cultivation (March/April) yields better results. With a later cultivation from May, this can cause fewer pods and problems with mildew.

In connection with mice and birds, sow sufficiently deep: 3-4 cm.

Harvest pods

Harvest the pods from June to July. Pick the pods as young as possible while they are still juicy. Pick regularly, the peas will taste mealy when you pick later.

Pods are suitable for freezing.

Interchangeable cultivation

It is wise to also use crop rotation for pods. Only place pods in the same place once every 6 years to minimize the risk of infection by fungal diseases.
