My peas have taken off quickly at home and are now quite tall. I would have preferred them to be shorter before planting them at the allotment. Would it be ok to cut them back a couple of inches before planting them.?

I've never done it myself, but when pigeons have savaged the top of my tall peas they have recovered and grown well (with some protection form the flying rats!)
They are a very old traditional variety. One of my uncles used to grow these many years ago when I was just a lad. About the only recollection I have is seeing some in his garden and they were tall growing. I mean really tall, taller than my uncle in fact!
Unable to offer much advice but they are going to need plenty of support!
Growing Telephono which is much the same. they do get very tall. Well worth it though. Lovely peas :blob7:
