    Maestro Peas

    Thanks, but what's the T for. I was thinking just straight post each end with horizontal string at bottom and top with vertical zigzag string pattern across from one end to the other looping top and bottom horizontal string. How would you string a T-post. Not sure how you would do T-post unless...

    Maestro Peas

    My first time planting Maestro Peas. have a 4'×8' raised bed with two rows of peas. One row 12" inward from each side leaving 24" between the two rows. I think you're saying I should stake them. Not sure what you're saying about pinching back or where to pinch back. Dan

    Overwinter onions from seed

    I have a few onions in containers I planted last fall. Over half them have bolted. Haven't harvested any yet because still green and standing tall.
