If they are a round seeded variety yes if a wrinkled NO and either way the mice will get them if they get a chance.. I always like to start mine off and transplant, sections of deep guttering are great for that.

BUT if you long for the taste of fresh peas, try pea sprouts?

Like SS, I soaked and sprouted and put into the ground maybe 3 weeks ago, and they are all up and looking good with very few gaps.

I do hope they survive the "winter".

Same here, though I did a mix of sprouted and straight from the packet (variety Meteor) as I wasn't sure whether the sprouted seeds, having been in the kitchen, would object to the change of temperature. 

It all went under some left-over bubble wrap and, when I looked today, there were some fledgling plants.   :)  Can't say how pleased I was!
