| Hi there, I am generally found in the winter sowing or cottage garden forum, but am hoping someone here might be able to answer my question! :)
Anyone have experience growing sweet peas from seed? I started mine in March in pots, and once they were big enough transplanted them to the garden at the foot of a staked tripod...they are maybe 3-4 inches high right now. How long do these take to really take off and grow enough to flower? Anyone know? Thanks! |

| It depends on your weather. They start to show some rewarding growth and begin to climb when your soil warms up. Sweet peas here, direct sown in March and April are only about 2" taller than your own. |

| My records show that my first sweet pea bloomed last year on July 1. I am borderline 5/6 too |
