It's definitely an art or challenge growing things in this heat. I use a combination of watering early in the mornings at the crack of dawn as the sun in coming up (around 6:40am) and shade cloths on top of the arch tunnels made with cattle panels, and every other day I also spritz them down alittle as it's getting dark at 8:45pm. I'm in North Texas so I do feel your pain. I also can't imagine a frost right now...on my way to work at night, at 9:30pm, it's usually just a few degrees UNDER 100. Tonight it was 98° at 9:30. During the night last night when it got down to 92°, it felt so good....crazy talk isn't it....hahahah... welcome to Texas!
Yes, welcome to TX
BUT... this year IS a little unusual.
Last year, I don't think we ever hit 100F
Yep I planted purple hulls and black eyed peas on July 1st…they are beautiful & should be producing soon ..
Thanks to u ..I now know that I can plant them later in the year..
You bet!
Loved the story about the rabbit! Also your attitude about his nibbling your hose! God bless!
Hahaha, glad you enjoyed it
You made me a believer in Zipper Cream Peas! I am planting 3 rows next year , maybe more even. Thanks again
Wonderful!
Love those purple hulls, one of my favorites. Good info.
Thanks for watching! 😊
Your peas are beautiful
Thank you kindly
Thanks for sharing!!
My pleasure!!
Did anyone else notice the rabbit at 3:44?
Wow... I DID NOT NOTICE HIM!!!
Thanks for pointing it out 👍😎
I got good production from Red Ripper which also filled in as a ground cover keeping weeds from my raised beds
Good to know. I have never tried the red Ripper peas… Yet 😊
I grow these with soaker hose and gin trash on top down the sides for mulch. They grow like weeds. Oldtimers trick for freezing them if you don't want to blanch them. Just put them straight into a clean cotton pillow case after shelling, and then straight into the freezer. Don't wash them first. Wash them before you cook them.
You can use a long twist tie to close off the pillow case. If you use them within a year there is little starch development. Helps if your freezer is very cold. Also when first freezing take the bag out every 30 minutes for 3 times and shake them around so they don't stick together while freezing.
I have tried the pillowcase/freezer method also.
It does work…
Thanks for the great tips!
I 've done picked 9 bushels off of mine since last week. I only fertilize them when they get planted or they will make more vines than peas. We have been getting rain showers just about every day .Surprisingly they have not got the fungus or wasp stings on them. I had planted an acre of them early in the year but lost them due to the drought ,they wouldn't fill out.
Nine bushels is great!!!
I planted purple hull peas last year and had explosive growth but as soon as they started blooming some wasps I've never seen before invaded the patch. Had a good harvest but when I took some into the house to dry after a few days little wasps started hatching and flying around insode my house. Never had anything like that happen before.
WOW... I'll look out for that.
Gonna spray mine again with Bug Buster II
NICE
👍😎
Awww the poor Rabbit. I know they can be destructive little critters. But, I feel sorry for them when you know they are suffering, and that hole in the line provided some relief.
Yep 👍😎
Rabbit on the run at 3:45 time mark
Yep 👍🏼😎
You mention 100 degree temps and it being like a blow drier. Well for us living near the northern gulf coast of Florida we seldom reach 100, but it is humid for sure. You sweat and the sweat does not evaporate. Frosts do not occur here prior to well in November and sometimes not until we are well into December. For days now it has been raining everyday. The rainfall at the airport for the nearby Pensacola Airport is 45 inches so far and I think i got more in my location.
Wow.
You have a completely different kind of problem than we do.
@@BIGALTX Finally now in august maybe the rain is letting up finally. For the next week the broadcast is 50-50, I saw a lot of freshly mowed lawns yesterday. That is what I did yesterday and will do some today if it stays dry.
I have not had to water an air layered Hicks mulberry that a friend sent me. I think it grew enough that it is now established. We normally average about 60 inches and 45 inch/year is a drought year for us. From mid august to about mid November is normally our dry period unless we get tropical storms. About every two days I am checking weatherungerground severe weather for hurricanes. So far there are none.
LOL Is that who you were talking about...Mr Rabbit....at 3:43 or so? Maybe it was a cat or little doggie.
Your peas look great and it's over an hundred here at my house around I-10 in Texas. Wanted to put some zipper creams in today.
Gonna go to your planting video to see what you add to the soil to get them going like this....beautiful. Jesus bless.
I’ll put down some 10-20-10 right before I planted them. That’s all I did to them.
Purple hull are my favorite peas
They are good, but Zippers are my fav
@@BIGALTX never heard of zippers
Zipper Cream Peas: hosstools.com/product/zipper-cream-pea/
Nice looking peas. I did not plant as much. I planted 1 row of black eyes in the ground and 10 tubs. All look great and are just starting to run.
Nice. Let me know how they produce
You are right- purple hull and what you call cream peas will grow in tre
Yep. Thanks for watching.
Wow! Beautiful! How long is the growing time? How many weeks from plant to harvest?
NM you answered my questions!
👍😎
Just planted my second crop last week, butter beans and green beans. Purple hull and zipper peas already canned
Nice!!
We aren't too far from you in TX. Our okra and cantaloupe are loving this heat as well.
Yep. Okra, peas and even watermelon are doing great!
My Southern Peas are about 6 weeks old. How are they doing?
Check it out!

We've picked 2 rounds of zippers. We have purple hull starting to bloom now and just planted more zippers yesterday.
Rabbits will wear out the young peas.
Yep.
They really like the peas when they are a few inches tall.
In central Florida 9b,Planted red ripper & Texas cream peas in may. Great germination from hoss tools seeds. Summer peas love the heat. Picking started and struggling to keep out deer. Thanks for sharing 🙏 😎 🏖 🏝
Thanks for sharing!
Well done, sir!!
Thanks!
I just came across some southern peas in the freezer. I think they're ready for the big time.
Give Peas A Chance!
👍😎
Nice job. Looking good.
Thanks 👍
They look great
Thank You!
@@BIGALTX you are very welcome
I’ve been looking for more varieties to plant in north tx with this heat and drought… might give these a try!
They will do GREAT!
My problem is the rabbits eating my new seedlings! I put in a set of beans a week ago, and only a few of the sprouts have any leaves left. Looking forward to under 100 temps next week! Greetings from North Texas!
Sorry to hear that
That's one reason I plant in containers
Rabbits usually won't jump up there and eat them.
Or there's THIS: czcams.com/video/RyYZTScOGHA/video.html
Or this: czcams.com/video/Fb8drEQSnhU/video.html
I planted rippers this year ..they will run on a fence ..I really didn’t like them though ..I’m partial to the Texas creams from Hoss Tools
👍😎
Im in Australia, i thought peas only grew in autumn and winter. I would like to try growing in spring and summer.
Wrong peas...these are like blsck eye peas...if not them.
True.
These are NOT cold weather peas.
These love the HEAT
HA HA! YOUR BUNNY MADE AN APPEARANCE AT 3 MINUTES 44 seconds
I KNOW.
Someone else pointed that out.
I didn't even see it while I was editing the video!!
My peas look like yours but no blossoms at all! They have taken over my garden with feet and feet of runners everywhere. Are they going to germinate soon?? It’s taken all summer long !!
I would think so. They usually take about 70 days from when you planted them.
Without lots of fencing---Pea vines would be deer salad here in W. Kentucky--heat or no heat. smh. .
I bet.
I just don't have any deer problems... too many new homes
quick question cow peas roots supposed to have knots of nitrogen on them when u pull them accidentally. I left most of roots in ground but few got pulled but didn't see any knodgles
I’ve never heard that, so I’m not sure…
It's possible the nodules hadn't formed yet &/or your soil did not have the correct bacterial innoculant for nodules formation.
Started mine about may 30 as spring d were done peas went in they r doing great.we did co peas but when we pick we find ants in them.does it happen to the zipper also they looked bigger and more return
I spray mine, but sometimes they will get ants
Do the peas need to be pruned like tomatoes, cucumbers etc?
No, let ‘em go!
👍🏻😎
I need a timer because I have forgotten and thought I drowned the peas a couple of time
I really like my timers! :)
You think a sugar pea can do that right now savannah ga today is may6
Yes, it’s getting too hot right now for sugar peas.
Southern peas like blackeyes, purple hulls, and Crowder peas do well when it starts to get hot. In fact, they love the heat!
👍🏻😎
I just found a Brown Turkey at our local WM. On the way home I drove by the mom and pop nursey and the had the containers you use, orange. I have the drain pipe leftover from another project earlier this summer All I need now is to know what container I should use. Any recommendations?
I like the wicking tubs. They are about 20 gallons.
@@BIGALTX sorry i meant container mix
Any good potting "MIX" will work... not "potting soil"
Try to get one that is at least 50% PEAT... more is better
My garden is wrecked this summer here in North Texas so disappointing.
Ah well fall planting time soon.
U think its bad there..with water restrictions in place now..its iffy if we will have drinking water 2 weeks from now...this year is just another disaster
@@sislertx Yep.
I hear you...
Hang in there!
You mentioned that you use "well"-water on your plants instead of "city"-water. Could you discuss the "biological" advantages, if any, of one opposed to the other?
Hahaha... COST!!
Now, there probably IS a biological advantage, but I've never researched it.
@@BIGALTX i think its the chlorine and stuff they put in city water.
This year you have plenty of time. It won't cool down till Christmas, if then🙁
Hahaha... Prolly true
Ok I’m in south texas, I’ve only tried growing regular peas ( sugar daddy) Very unsuccessfully……does the purple peas taste like regular peas ?
No they don't. If you have had dried black-eyed peas, then you have an idea of what the crowder peas taste like. But, even then the fresh taste a whole lot better. Any of the cream peas- zippers, cream 40's, have their own flavors. Even those are different in taste. But, no, they don't taste anything like an English type pea. Sugar Daddy's will only grow in a cool season. Don't quote me, but, I think it has to stay under 80ish for them to grow.
@@k.p.1139 thank you, I’ll be trying the southern pea… and I’ll give the English pea another shot this fall and crossings my fingers 🤣
I... HATE.... English Peas
These taste different... but better (to me)
And yes, what K.P said is true. If you've eaten black-eyed peas, that's the kind of pea these are.
All have different taste profiles, but pretty close
Zipper Cream is my fav
Thanks for the answer!
@@BIGALTX I’ll order some zipper cream and purple thanks 😊
I thought you meant actual peas not cowpea
Down here in the south, when we say peas, this is what we mean 👍🏻😎
@BIGALTX my bad, Kansas City here. I just imported a bunch of cowpea from Kenya, Nigeria, and mixed them with southern peas to blend genetics. I breed plants, so that's why I clicked on the video.
@@jmilly4360 Wow... Nice experiment!
Just ain't country folk if you don't grow peas, all you northerners take heed.
Heeheehee Truth!
