Had a thought. If you can protect them from freezing, now might be the time to plant peas in your area. They can handle light frosts, and they enjoy cooler weather.

Can somebody from Texas tell me if I’m right?

The three different pea seeds are on the way and I’ll read the info. on the envelopes, but regardless of what the envelopes say, I’ll choose one kind and plant some of them now to see what happens. I have a really small greenhouse on my deck and I’ll put the seeds in seed starter mix in paper cups and see if they will sprout in the greenhouse. I don’t want to put up the grow light and stand until the first of January, I think.

When all the seeds get here, I’ll check them to see if any seeds can be started before Jan. 1. I’m not yet sure when to start seeds as I haven’t done that for spring/summer food plants.

Rightly, you could help me with this since you live not far from me. Which seeds are you going to use and how do you start seeds and when do you start various seeds? It would help me to know what you do since I haven’t done this before for spring/summer.
