Description
Description
Spring Field Peas OG seeds from The Soil Makers are a tall, dual-purpose legume designed to build soil fertility while delivering useful harvests. This variety stands 3–4 feet tall, forming a vigorous canopy that helps suppress weeds and reduce spring weed pressure. Spring Field Peas OG excels at both soil health and practicality
Weed suppression: Its tall, dense growth smothers weeds more effectively than clover planted in spring, giving you a cleaner bed and less early-season competition for your crops.
Nitrogen fixation and biomass: This pea type can fix over 100 lbs of nitrogen per acre, contributing valuable soil nitrogen and yielding substantial biomass to feed the soil food web.
Flexible planting: Plant them solo for a strong, nitrogen-rich stand, or mix with small grains like spring oats to optimize nutrition, soil cover, and biomass production throughout the season. -
Culinary and aesthetic value: Tendrils add visual interest to salads, while dried yellow peas can be used to boost protein in soups and stews.
Who this product is ideal for: - Home gardeners seeking a simple, effective cover crop that also provides edible outputs. - Small-scale growers looking to boost soil fertility for subsequent crops without synthetic inputs. - Mixed-plant beds where you want both weed control and a source of nutritious harvests.
Why choose The Soil Makers: - Built on soil-first principles, delivering seeds that actively contribute to soil structure, fertility, and long-term productivity. - A practical, value-focused option for gardeners who want tangible soil improvement plus harvest opportunities from the same plant.
Key use scenarios: - Early spring planting to establish ground cover, suppress weeds, and begin nitrogen cycling for the season. -

Product features
Here are some tips for growing field peas:
- Plant depth: Plant pea seeds 1 inch deep and 2 inches apart in rows 3–6 feet apart.
- Sunlight: Peas require full sun, which is six to eight hours of direct sunlight per day. They can grow in partial shade, but not as vigorously.
- Fertilizer: Starter phosphorus fertilizer can increase pea yields, even in soils with high phosphorus levels. The maximum safe rate of seed-placed phosphorus is 20 lbs P2O5/acre.
- Winter kill: Field peas winter kill, making them a good cover crop for beginners.
- Nitrogen fixing: Field peas have great nitrogen fixing qualities. Inoculate for for N.
- Dried seeds: In arid regions, field peas can be grown for their smooth dried seeds, which can be used as food or feed crops.
