[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 542927, member: 84"] Hmm. Maybe it's the type of peas? There seems to be a wide variety of types to each veggie, or at least most of them. Wouldn't surprise me. LOL Now oddly........since I've gotten a bit more lavish with watering due to the intense heat wave, I have 2 blueberry bushes that are fighting to come back. The other two still have some green on them.....so they're still alive, just not doing as well. So maybe the spot isn't so bad after all. And heaven knows I've gotten plants that look just fine at the nursery only to put them into the ground and have them keel over even if I followed every direction to the letter. Had a few of those as perennials, thought I lost them for good, and had them come up the following year just grand, not to mention every year after that. So, dunno......maybe sometimes they stay in the pots too long. My late planted corn, which pretty much went through heck and back because right after I bought it I wasn't feeling well for quite a while, is now doing amazingly well. I swear those poor plants turned brown in their nursery containers like 5 times before I got them into the ground. At one point I was actually going to toss them out.........but we got an odd soaking rain and they turned healthy green again, so I put them into the flower garden I wasn't using to see how they'd do.
