Product Information

Whistler Winter Peas are white flowered, with a very low anthocyanin content (the reddish, purple color on flowers, leaves, and stems). Studies have shown that the lower the anthocyanin content, the higher the palatability of forage. Austrian Winter Peas are purple-flowered, and have a high anthocyanin content. Sweeter feed means higher intake, higher weight gain, and more profits.

Whistler Winter Peas are excellent for nitrogen fixation. Pea seed, properly inoculated, does an excellent job of fixing nitrogen from the air. The bacteria takes nitrogen, binds it with hydrogen from soil water, and forms ammonium, which is a form that is usable by plants. This nitrogen fixation makes Peas a perfect partner with cereals and grasses, which use large amounts of nitrogen, as well as banking nitrogen for future crops through cover cropping and green manure plowdown.

It is common practice to blend several varieties or mix several species together to get complementary performance within the blend. Whistler Winter Peas are excellent in blends with other peas. Being a winter-hardy, semi-leafless pea matches perfectly with spring peas for a quick fall forage, and with standard Pea varieties that have a tendency to lodge and lose forge quality. By mixing Whistler Winter Peas with cereals such as oats, wheat, rye or triticale, you will be adding palatability and high quality protein to your forage. The nitrogen fixing capacity of the peas will be complementary to the cereal forage production.

Instructions

When choosing to start a new lawn, remove old vegetation by using a de-thatcher, power rake or tiller to kill the existing vegetation. Rake or drag the area to remove debris and dead grass for a clean area. Ensure the soil is leveled and loosened to allow the seed to have good soil contact once spread on a clean seed bed.

If you have an area with heavy weed coverage, we recommend starting fresh by killing and removing the existing vegetation. If you choose to use chemicals, herbicides or fertilizers, you must check with the product's manufacturer prior to planting new seed to ensure the proper waiting period.

When overseeding an existing area, mow your lawn at the lowest setting and bag the clippingsx. Rake or drag any areas that have dead thatch or debris.
