Summary
Sweet peas are fragile champs when it comes to weather whiplash—Adam Frost from Gardeners’ World admits they often look spindly after sudden heatwaves, especially if started too late. He recommends getting them going indoors as early as Christmas, pinching them out to encourage bushier growth, and moving them outside only when conditions are stable. The combo of early feeding and intense heat? That’s the real culprit behind their limp look. Official advice? Sow from October to April, use deep pots, and deadhead constantly to keep blooms popping. Frost’s own garden hacks? He digs up and divides plants, keeps them potted, and even moves pots with him—his old garden’s new owners are loving the results. Even pros have their plant struggles.
