Apply nitrogen-fixing pea inoculant (available at garden supply centers) to the pea seeds. Follow package recommendations.
Moisten a paper towel and fold it into quarters.
Slide pea seeds into the paper towel's folds.
Put the paper towel and pea seeds into a perforated plastic baggie.
Place the seeds in a warm location, such as a sunny windowsill, with a temperature of approximately 64 degrees Fahrenheit (17.8 degrees Centigrade).
Monitor the moisture level of the paper towel and pea seeds, adding water as needed to ensure a humid environment inside the baggie.
Watch for roots poking from the folds of the paper towel.
Fill 3-inch (7.62 cm) pots with potting soil.
Plant 1 germinated seed from the folded paper towel into each pot. Note: Set the germinated seeds about 1/2 the planting depth recommended on the seed packet and cover them lightly with potting soil.
Water the pots until the soil surrounding the pea seeds is thoroughly moistened.
Allow the germinated pea seeds to grow into healthy seedlings before transplanting them outside into your garden.
