This year I have grown my peas in compost individually in the cardboard
cores of toilet rolls, a tip from a TV programme. They are now being
climatised but have lost their healthy green colour turning very pale.
Help please as it is now time for planting out.

Thanks
Bill

Peas - sweet or edible do not benefit from being transplanted, potted on,
etc.
They will thrive if planted in their final positions at the outset -
assuming the conditions are right.
Toilet roll cores - useful on the compost heap perhaps !!
I would chuck the whole lot on the compost and start again.
