Miss Mudcat, I have always used inoculant. Since I've never done without it, I have no way to compare. I figure it's pretty cheap and I can use it on both the peas and beans, so why not? My peas are coming along really nicely now. They don't get as much sun on this side of the garden as they did last year but they're still doing pretty well.
Thanks so much, Wando it is. It will be interesting to see if I can produce a mess of this type of pea in this climate.

Southern peas, we just drop them in the middle of a hard road and come back two months later!

The innoculant, I think it depends upon the native soil. If you have cold winters, I would think it would help. I have had no problem with any pea or bean thriving and producing plenty - but that's my soil. YMMV and all that.

If one used innoculant in one season, would it hold over to the next? I don't know.
