Pea cover crops seeds are traditionally soaked overnight in warm water to accelerate germination.

Dundale is a trailing annual garden vegetable and cool-season cover crop known to have a stronger ability to provide weed control in the pea plant family. In North America, the Dun pea is widely cultivated in the cool, temperate Pacific Northwest. Differentiated by its seed pod, color, and size, Dun pea garden seeds wear a greenish brown with yellow cotyledons and are popularly dimpled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDundale Pea Benefits\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrganic Heirloom Dundale pea is rich in protein-fortifying amino acids and carbohydrates and, even just a half cup serving, provides nearly 50% of daily recommended values of several essential vitamins. The field pea is widely accepted as one of the earliest domesticated crops, but mostly cultivated for livestock fodder only until 2,000 years ago. Today, Dundale is a commercially successful garden cultivar of pea grown for human consumption rather than cattle while also a choice cover crop to aid in replenishing nitrogen, soil tilth, erosion control, and repelling certain soil-borne pathogens. The open-pollinated Dundale pea seed grows a popular protein substitute and can highlight both the flower garden and variety of culinary treats in the kitchen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWholesale Organic Dundale Pea Cover Crop Seeds Per Package:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e25 g- Wholesale -

For more traditional sowing, plant 2-3 Dundale pea seeds 1-2” deep and 2-3” apart in organically rich, well-drained garden soil in full sun, light shade in warm summer months. Pea cover crops seeds are traditionally soaked overnight in warm water to accelerate germination.

Dundale is a trailing annual garden vegetable and cool-season cover crop known to have a stronger ability to provide weed control in the pea plant family. In North America, the Dun pea is widely cultivated in the cool, temperate Pacific Northwest. Differentiated by its seed pod, color, and size, Dun pea garden seeds wear a greenish brown with yellow cotyledons and are popularly dimpled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDundale Pea Benefits\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrganic Heirloom Dundale pea is rich in protein-fortifying amino acids and carbohydrates and, even just a half cup serving, provides nearly 50% of daily recommended values of several essential vitamins. The field pea is widely accepted as one of the earliest domesticated crops, but mostly cultivated for livestock fodder only until 2,000 years ago. Today, Dundale is a commercially successful garden cultivar of pea grown for human consumption rather than cattle while also a choice cover crop to aid in replenishing nitrogen, soil tilth, erosion control, and repelling certain soil-borne pathogens. The open-pollinated Dundale pea seed grows a popular protein substitute and can highlight both the flower garden and variety of culinary treats in the kitchen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWholesale Organic Dundale Pea Cover Crop Seeds Per Package:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e25 g- Wholesale - Approximately 110 Seeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 oz - Wholesale - Approximately 500 Seeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 lb - Wholesale - Approximately 2,000 Seeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5 lb - Bulk - Approximately 10,000 Seeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e25 lb - Approximately 50,000 Seeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNon-GMO Dundale pea cover crop seeds are available for \u003cstrong\u003eFast Free Shipping\u003c\/strong\u003e on orders over $45.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e"}
