Planting and Growing Tips:

1. Planting Time: Plant Mississippi Purple Crowder Peas after the last frost when the soil has warmed up to at least 65°F. These peas thrive in the warmth of the summer months and prefer full sunlight.
2. Soil Conditions: They grow best in well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral soil. Adding organic matter like compost will enhance soil fertility and improve yield.
3. Spacing: Plant the seeds 1-2 inches deep, spacing them 2-3 inches apart in rows. Allow about 18-24 inches between rows to allow ample room for the plants to grow and spread.
4. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during flowering and pod development. Once established, Mississippi Purple Crowder Peas are moderately drought-tolerant but thrive with regular watering.
5. Support: These peas are bush-type plants, so they don’t require trellising but should have enough space for good airflow, which helps prevent diseases like mildew.
