Fen Peas

It was quite warm today, and meant to be even warmer tomorrow, but then there appears to be a sting in the tail at the weekend with temperatures potentially below 10C. Growing crops, like humans, do not like these sorts of variations. In a nutshell peas want to go into moisture and then just have the sun on their backs. It's as simple as that, but never works out how you want it to. A quick trip round reveals that all peas drilled north of Boston are clearly visible in rows, while those south are just emerging. Dare I say it Andrew, a drop of rain would not go amiss!
