Is it a bit late now peas?

I have some seeds, just wondering should I plant some over the weekend?

Any advice?

Depends where you are. Too late for me in Yorkshire, you might just make it if you’re in the south. F all else fails, you can eat the tender tips. You’d do better with mangetout, you don’t have to wait the extra time for the peas to develop.

If you don’t sow, the seeds should be still good for next year

I wouldn't. I'm harvesting peas now.

They'll keep until next year. Just put them somewhere dry.

Thank you!

I did think it might be too late. So I’ll save for next year.

We’ve still got the tomatoes (even though still quite green) and strawberries and peppers (very tiny still).

I think I’ll start thinking about next year. I was late to sowing seeds this year because of the weather.

You could sow Japanese greens, winter hardy lettuces

Good time now if you just want the shoots. You can eat them.
