When the Sweet Pea seedlings have 3 - 4 pairs of leaves, pinch the top of the seedling, leaving 2 - 3 pairs of leaves. This encourages a more branching habit making the plants fuller

For all Sweet Peas, the bloom period depends on the weather. As temperatures warm up, flower production starts to slow down. Removing all spent stalks and blooms immediately after they are done blooming will prolong the bloom period.
