Cowpeas, also known as southern peas or black-eyed peas, thrive with several compatible companion plants. Corn offers structural support, which is especially helpful for vining varieties of cowpeas. Planting squash nearby can provide shade and reduce weed growth while conserving moisture. Additionally, cowpeas have a symbiotic relationship with certain soil bacteria that fix nitrogen, benefiting neighboring plants like tomatoes and peppers. These companion plants create a harmonious garden ecosystem, promoting the growth and overall garden health of cowpeas and their neighbors.More
I planted 50 and all 50 turned into beautiful plants. The SVB have gotten more than we have but we have harvested some beautiful pumpkins!! I will definitely order more!! I love this company! The seeds come super fast and the photography on the website is done absolutely beautifully!
They sent me what I order. I called for info on seeds. They were easy to contact and extremely nice to talk too. I received a lot of tips to produce more and better. Im going to continue to buy my seeds from thresh seed co.
I planted these seeds the first week of June in zone 6b. I think nearly every single one took. I pinched them back, and then they took off. It’s a great variety of single or multi-layers, some even pop up more red. They’ve been so fun to cut for vases, highly recommend.
We planted one packet on bush beans and ever seed germinated. By far our most prolific bean summer yet. Small, tender beans that are even delicious to munch in the garden. Will be a stable in our Wisconsin garden from here on out.
This vining melon is prolific in a raised bed in western Wisconsin. Trellises or on the ground, you’ll get many fruits from in plant. Definitely a keeper in our garden.
I am absolutely in love with these tomatoes. The description was SPOT ON. When I first started growing these tomatoes I kinda doubted the claims that these tomatoes were extremely prolific and love to sprawl so I decided to plant 3 together. This was both a blessing and a curse because I now have a lot of tomatoes but my garden box has also went missing due to the size of these plants, haha! They’re so sweet and the perfect size for everything in my opinion. I hate when diced tomatoes are added to things and it makes everything soggy or too runny. These tomatoes solve that problem by being the size of a diced tomato while still being fully enclosed in a skin. I’ve used them to cook so many different things and I they haven’t disappointed me yet. I couldn’t recommend them enough!
I have 2 - 2’ x 6’ raised beds which are waist high, as bend-over gardening has become challenging. These seemed like a good choice, and I’ve not been disappointed! Bonus- their short germination time means I am looking at a second harvest in a couple of weeks! These little guys are good BOTH as snap peas early on in salads and stir-fry, as well as fresh shelled peas a little later on.
