When to plant peas in Mexico: 16 December – 12 October
Peas in Mexico: sow straight into the bed from 16 December to 12 October; the window opens earliest in Aguascalientes and closes latest in Toluca (15 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.
