Earthing up potatoes peas beans and other crops requires manure at the time. Break up soil deeply when weather allows and support growing plants. Slake peas before tallness. dwarf varieties benefit from support. Onions may be planted. prune straggling roots. Pinch young pods on broad beans. manage black aphids.
