[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1251425, member: 18945"] The plants looked great yesterday afternoon--up about 2 ft tall, and first blooms on. I was gone out of town much of the day today, went and looked at them when I got home and every one of them is wilted like month old lettuce. I mean hanging limp leaves and stems. B-I-L said he thought it was because the sun came out today for the first time in days and it got hot fast, and the high temps just steamed or cooked the plants because there was so much moisture in the leaves, stems and in the ground. Is this a reasonable explanation? My peas look a little wilted too, but not as bad. Can't be lack of moisture--garden is floating but whatever it was, it happened suddenly, happened to all 15 plants, and it happened today. (temp today was in the lower 80s I think, and full sun until around 4pm. [/QUOTE]
