When to Plant Peanut Seeds
For outdoor sowing, plant Peanut seeds after danger of frost has passed in the spring. If starting your seeds indoors, plant several weeks before the end of frost season in individual pots.
Where to Plant Peanut Seeds
Peanuts grow best in well-composted, fertile, light-textured, sandy, well-drained soil in full sun conditions. The most ideal soil pH is 5.1-6.5. Add calcium as needed to the top 3-4" of soil.
How to Plant Peanut Seeds
Soak seeds for 24 hours prior to planing. Plant seeds about 2" deep in rows 3' apart with 6-9" between each plant in the row. Water regularly and avoid letting soil dry out. Seedlings should germinate within 14-21 days.
How to Care for Peanut Plants
Water regularly until germination takes place. After first fall frost, dig up plants and spread on a dry surface, not touching the ground, allowing plants to dry in full sun for 4-7 days before stripping the pods from the plants. Pods typically ripen 120-150 days after sowing your seeds.
