pea leaf colour

[alan639]

I have 3 varieties of pea, Onward, Kelvedon Wonder and Mangetout. On all 3 the leaves have a variation in the colour. Is this normal ?

The colour of the foliage will reflect the nutrients each plant finds in the soil. As each plant could well be in marginally different soil, they may well all be slightly different in colour.

Mine usually look like that. I don't worry about it and I get decent hauls of peas. You can agonize too much!

Like Fum said - don't worry, be happy, enjoy your peas

Thanks, I just wondered if my soil was lacking something

Mine are starting to turn Yellow.....are they finished or do they med a feed?

I don't feed peas, I just plant them, put in the twiggy sticks and leave them to it. Having said that, I only grow them to pick and eat outside!

That's what I do, apart from the mange tout which freeze well.

All the peas I've grown have had the same markings on them, either in the garden or on the plot.
Definitely nothing to worry about
