Hi All,

I have another problem I forgot to mention in my earlier post. I have snow
pod peas growing in a container on my deck. The plant was going well until
last few weeks. Now it seems to be getting yellow with leaves falling off
from the bottom moving up. It started only a inch or so and is now about 6
inches or so up the 30 inch or so plant. Almost seems like its dying bottom
up. Plant is still making flowers and pea pods, just harvested some today in
fact. Any idea what is happening? Is that normal? Maybe it's overwatered?

Craig,
That's normal. I'm in N. California and usually grow them in the
spring. When it starts getting hot, they start dying off.

It's suggested that you sow sets of seeds a few weeks apart, if you
want continuous crop. I have such trouble getting things started from
seed that I don't bother.

Snow peas are one of the biggest producing plants that I have ever
grown. Always enough for me and usually enough for the entire office.
