The Mysterious Germinating Peas
I planted the peas on Saturday morning. Yesterday I went out in the garden to see if the crocuses had bloomed yet and I noticed that there was a tiny seedling where I had planted the peas!
Is it possible for peas to germinate in 24 hours, even if it’s just one? I looked online and it said that peas germinate in 7 to 14 days. I moved around a lot of the surrounding dirt when I was planting the peas, so I doubt that it was there before I planted them, or else I would have killed it. I guess I’ll have to wait til it gets bigger to have a look at it ans find out if it is a pea.
Does anyone have any ideas about the mysterious seedling?

It could be anything, even a little weed seed. Who knows though, it could be a pea.It will be interesting to see what it turns out to be. Thanks for sharing!

I’ve not had any of my peas germinate in one day, but lots of other seeds I started in late winter germinated way early (like within 48-72 hours) when they were supposed to be 1 to 2 weeks too. -Jen
