Marcella:" I'VE GOT PEA PODS! I know nothing about how to grow peas but want the type pods to use in a stir fry.
I found that kind in three types of bush peas good for container growing. I have one pot of each to determine which one to stay with from now on.
There is one pod on each of these along with blooms on each type."

The more you pick the pea pods , they more they will try to replace the pods.
TO keep a pea pod plant active is to pick the pods, which will reult in more flowering, and thus and more pods !! until they are 'spent' (lack of fertilization) , or , poor growing conditions.
That is why many people have two seed sowing seasons , once in the spring , and , another in the fall .
Save the seed plants in the fall for sowing for next year !!
