So my container garden has been doing pretty darm good. My watermelons are growing, now fruit yet though. My carrots are bushy topped, and my peas are flowering.

However, i've noticed that my peas stalks look like they are starting to wilt and die.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Either they need water or the roots are getting too hot. Peas like their roots cool and their tops warm.

Give thanks to yourself everyday for all the wonderful things you do!

Mine too, but it's because of the hot weather--we've had weeks of rain, so they're happily drinking water. They will peter out here shortly and I'll harvest all the pods and pull them for the compost.
