When to plant peas in Italy: 6 January – 10 October

Peas in Italy: sow straight into the bed from 6 January to 10 October; the window opens earliest in Rome and closes latest in Palermo (41 cities).

Each window starts on the Greenly calendar date and ends on the last day that still leaves the crop’s days to harvest (from its card) before the average first autumn frost, plus six weeks of picking for crops harvested over weeks (tomatoes, peppers, aubergines, cucumbers, courgettes, pumpkins, watermelons, beans) — our rule; earlier in the window is safer.
