Sugar pea of the SUGAR 2 variety is a mid-late variety with a vegetation period of 49 to 60 days from germination to the first harvest. Plants reach a height of 70–80 cm, have simple stems and a compact shape, which facilitates care and harvesting. Pods 7-9 cm long contain 7-9 peas and differ by the absence of a hard parchment layer, making them fleshy and retaining a sweet taste for a long time. Seeds have a bright green color and a straight shape, ensuring good product quality.
For successful cultivation, it is recommended to sow peas on sunny areas with well-processed soil, planting seeds at a depth of 4-6 cm. Plants require support, especially when they reach a height of 10-15 cm, to maintain a vertical position and prevent damage. The variety is distinguished by high resistance to cooling and is capable of self-pollination, making it a reliable choice for various climatic conditions. In addition, the variety withstands cultivation without the use of chemical fertilizers.
Sugar pea SUGAR 2 is widely used in cooking due to its sweet taste and delicate texture. Young immature pod walls are used as food, suitable for fresh consumption and canning. The yield of the variety is from 0.7 to 1.2 kg per square meter, which allows obtaining a stable and quality harvest with proper care.
