I paid $1 a pound of Iron-Clay peas at our local feed & seed. It comes in 50 lb. bags, but they sell it by the pound also. On that plot you see in the picture I plant 15 lbs. of peas and 4 lbs. Alyce clover in earlyApril,and get full coverage. When the peas get about a foot high the deer hammer them and wipe them out in two or three weeks. By that time the clover is established well enough to recover from their grazing.
