  • Sweet Peas query?

    Hi -I've been cutting my sweet peas every couple of days....however I was just wondering...is it possible to cut sweet peas too often? Don't have as many flowers today...should I just leave a bit longer in between cutting?

      Pick whatever are in flower every day or two. Once they start going to seed they flower less.

        As Shirl says, keep picking. If you leave the flowers on the plant they set seed and then the plant will stop flowering. How tall are your plants? If they are very tall, you can cut them back to a couple of feet and then give a good water and feed and hopefully sideshoots will grow and produce more flowers.

          yeah the reason I keep picking is last year I was lazy and lost alot to seed but it's trying to find a happy medium. They are probably about 5ft tall - maybe I'll give them a wee trim! Thanks for advice all

            You may need to feed them
