If, like me, you got a head start on your sweet peas and sowed them in fall, now is the time to pinch them out. Pinching out refers to removing the top of the seedlings to encourage bushier growth. The bonus is that you can propagate the tops you removed to double your plants.
It would be a shame to miss this step when growing sweet peas because it's a quick and easy way to encourage stronger plants with more blooms, and it can double your number of sweet pea plants. You can simply use your fingers to pinch out sweet peas, and along with a water propagation station (like this pretty wooden one from Amazon), you can get results in just two weeks.
