Do not eat treated seeds. **Seeds are freshly packed for the growing season of the year listed. Seeds are still viable beyond pack date. Store in a cool and dry location such as the refrigerator or basement to best preserve germination rates. Planting Instructions: Soil Preparation: Remove weeds, large rocks, and litter from the planting area. Till the soil 8-10 inches deep and rake several times to break up large clods. It is best to do this when the soil is dry enough to not stick to garden tools. Loosening the soil will help the plant establish strong roots. Planting: In the Spring, plant cowpeas after all danger of frost has passed and temperatures are consistently 65F. The colder the soil, the longer it will take for the seeds to germinate. For Fall planting, sow early enough so that harvesting can be completed before damaging frost occurs, about 14 weeks before first average Spring frost. Plant cowpea seeds 1-2 inches deep and 2-4 inches apart in the rows spaced 2-3 feet apart. Planting in fertile, moist, well-draining soil is best for seeds to germinate and emerge quickly. Planting Depth: 1-2 inches Within-Row Spacing: 2-4 inches Between-Row Spacing: 2-3 feet Care During the Season: Watering: Cowpeas can withstand heat and dry conditions well compared to other vegetables, but yields can increase with good watering and rainfall. Water plants about 1 inch every 7-10 days when established. Weeding: Weeds consume about as much water as the cowpea plant itself so try to pull weeds when possible, but be careful not to pull the delicate roots of the plant. Fertilizing: Soil pH between 6.0-6.5 is best but cowpeas are tolerant of many soil conditions. Fertilizer is optional but 4-12-12 or 5-10-10 are good options if choosing to fertilizer. Apply by broadcasting or creating a 4 inch deep band along the row, 3 inches away from the seed. Water plants after fertilizing. Insecticides: Insecticides may be used to protect plants. Bt-based insecticides and sulfur are organic options. Sulfur also has fungicidal properties and helps in controlling many diseases. Before using a pesticide, read the label and always follow cautions, warnings and directions. Diseases: Diseases may be a possibility during cool, wet weather. If spots appear on leaves or bean pods, treat the plant with an approved fungicide. Neem oil, sulfur, and other fungicides may be used. Harvesting: For fresh cowpeas, pick individual pods when the pods are at least 6 inches in length, their seeds fill the pods well, and they are easily snapped like green beans. For dry beans, pull up the whole plant when 90% of the pods have dried off and seeds are hardened. Spread the plant in a safe area to complete the drying of the pods. Leaving the pods to completely dry on the plant may risk field weathering and losing or breaking the seeds. Break completely dried pods down the middle and push out the seeds. Store the seeds in an airtight container until ready to use.

30 COWPEA CALIFORNIA BLACKEYE SEEDS NON – GMO FRESH GARDEN HARVEST

30CALIFORNIA BLACKEYECOWPEA SEEDS Cultivating California Blackeye Cowpea: A Comprehensive Guide Introduction: California Blackeye Cowpea, scientifically known as Vigna unguiculata subsp. unguiculata, is a warm-season legume that belongs to the Fabaceae family. Also known as black-eyed peas, this crop is popular for its versatility, adaptability, and nutritional benefits. Cultivating California Blackeye Cowpea can be a rewarding experience, offering various culinary possibilities and health advantages. This guide will take you through a step-by-step process for successfully growing this plant, concluding with a delightful recipe and health benefits. Step 1: Climate and Soil Requirements – California Blackeye Cowpea grows best in regions with warm temperatures, ideally between 75-90°F (24-32°C). – The plant requires full sun exposure for at least six hours a day. – It thrives in well-drained soil with a pH level ranging from 6.0 to 7.5. Step 2: Planting – Start preparing the soil by removing any weeds, debris, and rocks. – Incorporate organic matter or compost into the soil to improve its fertility and moisture-retention capacity. – Sow the seeds directly into the garden bed once the soil has warmed up to a temperature of at least 65°F (18°C). Alternatively, you can start them indoors four to six weeks prior to the last frost. – Plant the seeds 1-2 inches deep, spacing them about 6 inches apart in rows that are 2-3 feet apart. – Keep the soil consistently moist until the seedlings emerge, which usually takes around 7-10 days. Step 3: Watering and Care – Provide the plants with an adequate water supply, ensuring the soil remains evenly moist throughout the growing season. – Water deeply but less frequently, promoting root growth. – Apply a layer of organic mulch around the plants to conserve soil moisture and suppress weed growth. Step 4: Fertilization – California Blackeye Cowpea is a legume that fixes nitrogen, reducing the need for additional nitrogen fertilizers. – However, providing a balanced fertilizer at the time of planting can promote healthy growth. – Apply a phosphorus-rich fertilizer, following the suggested application rates according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Step 5: Pest and Disease Management – Monitor the plants regularly for any signs of pests like aphids, leafhoppers, or caterpillars. – Use insecticidal soaps or organic insecticides if necessary. – Practice crop rotation to minimize the risk of diseases like fungal infections or root rot. – Ensure good air circulation between plants to reduce humidity, minimizing the chances of disease outbreaks. Harvesting: – California Blackeye Cowpea matures approximately 70-90 days after planting depending on the variety. – Harvest the pods when they turn brown or yellow and start to dry, and the peas become fully mature. – Gently pull or cut the entire plant and hang them upside down in a warm, dry location until they are dry enough for shelling. – Shell the peas from the pods and store them in airtight containers in a cool, dark place.
