Species and varieties: Snow peas (Pisum sativum var. macrocarpon) are a variety of pea eaten whole in its pod while still unripe. Popular varieties include 'Oregon Sugar Pod II', 'Mammoth Melting Sugar', and 'Dwarf Grey Sugar'.
Hybrid or heirloom: Snow peas can be found in both hybrid and heirloom varieties. Heirloom varieties like 'Mammoth Melting Sugar' are prized for their traditional qualities and flavor, while hybrid varieties like 'Oregon Sugar Pod II' are often bred for disease resistance and higher yields.
Pruning and training: Snow peas benefit from support structures like trellises or stakes to keep the vines off the ground and improve air circulation. Regularly pinch off the growing tips to encourage bushier growth and more pods.
Fertilization needs: Snow peas are light feeders and generally do not require heavy fertilization. However, incorporating compost or a balanced fertilizer into the soil before planting can promote healthy growth. Avoid high-nitrogen fertilizers, as they can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of pod production.
Hardiness zones: Snow peas are best suited for USDA hardiness zones 3-11. They thrive in cooler weather and can tolerate light frosts.
Climate requirements: Snow peas prefer a cool climate and are typically planted in early spring or late summer. They require full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil with a pH between 6.0 and 7.5. Ideal growing temperatures range from 55°F to 70°F (13°C to 21°C).
