Default Dates on commercial seed packets

I have asked several of my fellow allotment holders of their
experience with sowing coomercial pea seed,and almost without
exception,they blame failure of their pea seed to germinate well on
their own gardening inexpeience-soil too cold ,wet or dry,seed sown
too deep or mice problems.

If your fellow allotment holders rely on buying seed they may well be doing
something wrong. I am not a clever feller but I DO have very healthy seed
saved.
Try a seedswap with your fellows, or buy if you are friendless.
