This is my first garden (with tomatoes, peas and some squash), and it looks like peas will be the very first thing I get to harvest. Yeah! :0) I hope you get a good crop in before the heat arrives in full force!buckeye207https://www.blogger.com/profile/15382201783958748645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28216161.post-11150931828512626002009-06-09T13:36:11.921-04:002009-06-09T13:36:11.921-04:00All of my early sown peas were left alone but the ...All of my early sown peas were left alone but the more recent pea and bean plantings are being eaten by various critters.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06457953816169352495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28216161.post-51449308566726104432009-06-09T11:38:02.915-04:002009-06-09T11:38:02.915-04:00I think it was slugs that got my first batch of pe...I think it was slugs that got my first batch of peas... but the eggshells seem to have protected the second batch!

I'm using it because I had SVB issues last year, and my plants seem fine - though not as big as I would have hoped for by now.<br /><br />This year the tomatoes that I kept the wall of water on longer are noticeably bigger than those that I removed them from once we had a couple of 80s days.AnnFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09103870741771640829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28216161.post-46506343792110334412009-06-07T21:54:53.194-04:002009-06-07T21:54:53.194-04:00My peas have just started to take off and bloom th...My peas have just started to take off and bloom this past week.

I am a bit west, Worcester County, and reading your blog is both great inspiration and a good guide for how things are growing given weather this spring. After reading this I went out and can see the first buds on my pea plants.
