We have little snow? peas growing !! Not sure how to tell when they are ready to eat. Still waiting for onion, garlic and spinach to sprout. Cauli, radish and carrot are all growing nicely.
Snow peas are ready to eat whole when you can juuuusssst see/feel the tiny little peas inside the pod. And can be eaten at any time after that until the pods dry up and go crispy, but you have to shell them at that end of the season. Jelly. Mine don’t grow over winter dammit.
Mine should grow over winter, but have so many critters eager to eat them that the plants often don’t get established. I planted some seeds a while ago, I need to go out and see if I have any that managed to sprout. I’m definitely a long way from actual pods even if they have survived.

It’s my therapeutic veggie garden.
