Hi, if you cut off the peas at the base, they will continue to grow and

give you more than one harvest.

Great tip, Ernest. And, is there an ideal height for the pea sprouts? 

Your wisdom is appreciated.

Thank you, Barbara

Hi Misslavande,

 

I think Gilfrishman from will be the best to guide you, whether the

popcorn seeds are from or not. I think the seeds are dead. Your

peas and mung are doing well in the same system. Try a different lot of seeds.

 

Best of luck.

Hi Gopal

thank you for asking

the popcorn has been in vermiculite since Nov. 10 and sprayed with

good water with liquid seaweed, in a planter adjacent to the snow pea.

no sign of life on that( side of the ) planet!

nothing, nothing at all. I wonder if they are all dead, and what to do

with the " dirt "

and what to do with the popcorn seed. It is a shame, they probably

will end up with the rest of the popcorn we have as a snack.

I would like to hear some words of wisdom from people who grow popcorn

successfully

the peas on the other hand have grown up to 10+ inches and some are

still in there, growing as we speak. I did no harvest all at once.

they are magnificent, strong, fibrous and sweet.

Different from the ones I get at the market, much stronger.

starting Mung beans today.

just reading from you guys what to do

thank you all

I cut them as I need or want them. They usually don't reach 4 inches.

After the third cutting you will need to give the seedling some fish oil

or liquid kelp to keep them growing, but eventually they will give up and

ask to be removed to the compost pile.
