Peas

I planted some peas for the first time, all was going well lots of flowers, lots of pods, I picked them today for dinner & only a few of the pods had peas in, what did I do wrong?

    Were the pods nice and fat?

    What variety did you grow?

  • They were picked before they were ready, or perhaps they were mange tout.

  • The pods felt firm but it was air, don't know what variety they were, I think I may have picked them too early as some had tiny peas in them, thank you for your repliesimage

    When I pick peas I usually check a pod to see what the situation is before I pick the lot.
