Peas
From Allotments4All
With peas I have found that if you chit them prior to sowing, good results are to be had. To do this soak the peas in in cold water in a shallow dish or tray, just covering the top. Refresh the water 24 hours later, but this time do not completely cover the peas, leave the top bit above the water line, by the second day you should see a sprout emerging from each pea, next day sow. I have done this with my oregon sugar snap peas, they went into gutters 3 weeks ago after chitting, in a cold frame with no heat, & every one is now up & when the weather gets warmer they will just be slipped into a trench in the ground
