Organic Maple Pea (dou miao) seeds

Organic Maple Pea (dou miao) seeds

Prized for their distinctive sweet flavour and tender texture, Maple Pea shoots (dou miao) are rich in protein, fibre, iron, potassium and vitamins A, C and K. They can be eaten raw or stir-fried.

Pea shoots can be cut and regrown 2-3 times. 

Sowing guidance and growing conditions:

Sow 35g per growing cycle. A 140g packet provides 4 growing cycles for your Microbed, and a 280g packet provides 8 growing cycles for your Microbed.

Each growing cycle allows 2 harvests, as maple pea (dou miao) shoots will regrow after being cut above the first set of leaves every ~8 days.

Soak seeds for 6-8 hours before sowing. Indoors, place in a bright area with good ventilation after germination, but not in direct sunlight. 

Seed storage:

Store in a cool, dry place. Higher temperatures and humidity levels will negatively impact seed viability.
