How tall should a trellis be for peas?
The height of your trellis will depend on the size of pea you are growing. Snow peas don’t grow very tall, so the trellis can be 4–5 feet tall, but most regular peas will need a 6–8 foot tall trellis.
How do you structure peas?
Double row: the classic structure is to plant two rows of beans or peas about 1 foot (30cm) apart and to stick canes in each side, tying them together at the top with string. I often use this method and add an extra cane along the top with a supporting ‘guy rope’ string at each end to strengthen the whole structure.
Will peas grow up lattice?
Peas grow on a trellis by sending out side shoots, called tendrils, that vine out from the main stem. Those tendrils will wrap around anything they touch.
How wide should a garden trellis be?
The only thing you want to remember is to make the width of the lean-to trellis reasonable, so that you don’t have to reach or bend over too far to harvest from your plants. I would recommend taking a board 5 feet long by 3 feet wide, and supporting it at one end with a couple of boards that are 3 feet high.
Do pea plants need a trellis?
Green peas don’t need a trellis, but pods will be easier to pick when vines are held upright. If you’re using a trellis, insert it prior to planting. Use netting, stakes, and string, a wood frame trellis covered with chicken wire, metal fencing, or a collection of twiggy branches stuck into the ground among the plants.
What to use for peas to climb?
Peas climb with 1″ tendrils that they wrap around anything that’s less than about a quarter inch. String, twine, trellis netting or wire mesh with a grid no less than 1″ square, all work well. For highest yield, plant peas on both sides of the trellis.
