Have had a lovely crop of peas, and would love to sow some more to harvest late summer/autumn.  I have no spare ground, so would it be OK to sow them where those  that have just finished cropping have been growing?

Still good to hear it on here as I was going to do the same thing :D

yes they can be grown in same spot cos the put nitrogen in the soil  Little beads like on the roots  

But it is good to move um about cos this will make the soil on the whole plot better over time increase nitrogen  the available soil

i don't belive death is the end
