| 77 | 70% of pods have reached typical length. Tenderometer value: 130 TE | |
| 79 | Pods have reached typical size (green ripe); peas fully formed | |
| 8: Ripening of fruit and seed | 81 | 10% of pods ripe, seeds final colour, dry and hard |
| 82 | 20% of pods ripe, seeds final colour, dry and hard | |
| 83 | 30% of pods ripe, seeds final colour, dry and hard | |
| 84 | 40% of pods ripe, seeds final colour, dry and hard | |
| 85 | 50% of pods ripe, seeds final colour, dry and hard | |
| 86 | 60% of pods ripe, seeds final colour, dry and hard | |
| 87 | 70% of pods ripe, seeds final colour, dry and hard | |
| 88 | 80% of pods ripe, seeds final colour, dry and hard | |
| 89 | Fully ripe: all pods dry and brown. Seeds dry and hard (dry ripe) | |
| 9: Senescence | 97 | Plants dead and dry |
