Help - what is wrong with my peas?
« on: July 07, 2009, 20:17 »
Hubby has just come back from the allotment with some peas and he says that the pods are starting to get like a brown rust on them.   

The ones that he has picked are okay but we wondered what it could be, what we can do and can we still pick and eat them?
I always find that work gets in the way of life.
