Steps for growing pea seedlings

The first step is seed selection

Put the seeds in water and sift out the seeds that float on the water. Save the healthy seeds that sink to the bottom for later use.

Step 2: Germination

Use a clean, stain-free basin to soak the peas in tap water for a day, which will help the seeds germinate.

Step 3: Planting seeds

Pour seven-tenths of soil into the prepared container, spread the pea seeds evenly on the soil, and cover them with a thin layer of soil. Finally, fill the plant with water using a watering can.

Step 4: Maintenance

Pea seedlings grow best in cooler temperatures of 15-20 degrees Celsius. On the tenth day, you can apply a little thin fertilizer. When the pea seedlings grow to about 30cm, bamboo sticks should be inserted to facilitate climbing.

While waiting for the pea seedlings to grow, you can not only pick them while they are still tender and make cold dishes, or leave some seedlings to bloom and bear fruit and harvest pea grains, but you can also decorate your yard. It's really killing two birds with one stone!
