iron clay peas

Postby loch leven » Tue Jun 08, 2010 8:10 pm

I heard that the deer love iron clay peas and i am interested in planting some. Can i broadcast them or do i have to drill them in? What is the maturity of the peas? I'd like to have them mature around October 1 for bow season

Yes they love them. I broadcast mine when i plant them. But thinking of using a two row planter this year for them.

If you broadcast with a big tractor spreader you run the risk of breaking the pea, you would probly be better off drilling

i always disk the ground good, and plant them with a atv spreader and drag them with two piecies of rail road iron welded between chains.

I always have good looking pea patches.

bout to get ready to plant some now, also going to wait till august and plant some austrian winter peas, they should last through a frost.
