As the title suggests, trying peas for animal protein.
Does planting at 6 or 12 inch rows make any difference?
Go with narrow row spacing. This helps suppress weeds and lets the tendrils bind with each other better to hold the crop up.
They absolutely hate any compaction at drilling time, so make sure conditions are good.
