Can I add soil inoculent after planting pea seeds?

Question

I wanted to get my pea seeds planted during the best moon dates per The Farmer’s Almanac but my stores don’t have the inoculent in stock yet. Can I add it to the soil after my peas start coming up or “near” the seeds before they sprout? Depending on when I can the inoculent. Thanks!

It won't hurt to add the inoculant later but may not be as helpful. I would go ahead and try it. Here's an article that may be helpful:
