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.
