Peas like cool temperatures. When sown in the heat of summer, the plants will take longer to mature, and sometimes you won’t get as good a yield. Yet, some gardeners have had success. Check the days to maturity for the variety that you’d like to grow, and add about 1 to 2 weeks to that amount of days; count that amount backward from your first expected fall frost. Choose varieties that are resistant to powdery mildew, as that can be more of a problem with later crops. Keep the plants out of direct blazing summer sun, by providing shade cloth or similar. Add compost and mulch to retain moisture. Good luck!
