Are snow peas easy to grow

Easy peasy, pardon the pun. Support when young and keep rows at least 450 mm apart so you can find the peas before they mature. Good luck.

Hi Ziggy Yes, they're very easy to grow although you need to make sure they have enough ventilation as they can easily get white powdery mildew (I think that's what it's called). They come up pretty quickly too which I always find exciting. I soak my seeds in warm water overnight before I plant them. Happy growing!
