Thank you so much for showing me how to save the seeds my pea plant is my first ever plant I planted my self and I really enjoyed seeing it progress but now since it’s drying up I needed to find a video to help me with collecting seeds❤

[patriciaserdahl]

Thanks great information on Drying n Saving Peas the right way Been drying n saving my seeds this last week had a Bumper crop and getting ready to plant my Fall Peas 😀 👍 🇺🇸

Wanna hear a cool story. I grew peas in the spring, saved the seeds to dry and planted them in mid summer for late peas… Didn’t know I could do that. So cool!
Also, i had pretty great success with the seeds I saved. I had to pick before they were completely dry on the vine because the birds like them and if they deer had gotten them I wouldn’t have had them to replant.

Oh this is both fantastic information and very timely. My peas are still going strong but I wanted to prepare for seed harvesting. This is more for my grown children who are learning with me too, so thank you so very, very much.

Great video! I like to make sure their completely dry by laying them on a cardboard tray or something similar and put it inside by a sunny window for a few days. A couple of weeks does not hurt either.

Im sure one can do without follpwing your guidlines but i prefer to be safe than sorry. Also im in Sweden and fall gets moist and cool so often seed pods that are dry may still have some surface moisture.

Thank you so much! I was having the hardest time saving and growing peas, thank you!🥰😃

I saved peas for the first time this year. It is usually hard to do that here in Northern NY because of the humidity. But, we have had a lot of higher temperatures this summer so I gave it a try. The Alaska Peas hate excess heat from the sun. So they dried out very quickly. Just two small harvests. These peas out grew my 4 foot trellis by at least 2 feet. The stalks of the plants were as thick as a pencil. I never grew peas like this variety before. They are for U.S. zone 3 and we are in 4a. Normally it would have been cool enough here for them. I got a lot of pea seeds. Enjoyed, take care!

Very interesting I took down peas but still in the pod letting them dry out as you mentioned

[brandywvstrong]

Great video Jeff!!!
I might be a little more busy now but I still try to make time for your wonderful tips.
🙏🏻💙🙏🏻

I really enjoy your channel and the information you provide is great. Easy to understand and I like the sense of humour you add. Have learned a lot and will continue to watch your channel. I am based in the UK and find your tips so useful even if our weather and temperatures differ. Thanks for explaining things so clearly and thoroughly. I'm new to gardening and all the veg I grow is in fabric grow bags of various sizes.

I have the Oregon peas growing this year, and forcing myself to save them instead of eating them right off the vine is hard. Thanks for sharing.

[freedomacreshomestead]

Thanks so much for this information. I'm going to try fall planting seeds this year to see how that goes in zone 6a.

[christinebrooks]

Hi, as always, a great video with lots of help & advice too. Thanks for sharing and take care 🙂

[justfurthehealthofit]

Oh man, I am behind on watching videos and I actually just harvested all my pea seeds this morning! Luckily, I have done it correctly. I am going to have to go back and figure out if I had hybrid though.

[trishsmith]

I saved a few onions and carrots from last year to go to seed this year so this was a video I needed. I read that seeds you save grow better in your area than store bought seeds that might be harvested in a warmer climate . Do you think that is true? This year I am going to save all the seeds I can. One question- I’m growing several new heirloom hybrids which will not bloom true. If I hand pollenate and put a net bag over the flower, will it bloom true? I keep trying to understand how tomato genetics work but I dont’ know enough.

this was a perfect video ! thanks buddy

I'm glad i dont have to dry them ll the way on the vines. I need the space for my fall crops. I have never had a pea crop produce in two months closer to 3 and starting to die off about 4 months. Keeping them an extra 3 weeks to dry holds back precious real estate in the garden
