Default Can I eat my Peas if they have powdery mildew?
Hi,

I seem to have powdery mildew all over my peas. My peas are now podding and as its my first ever lot of peas and I don't want them to go to waste.

I wanted to know is it still safe to eat them with the mildew all over the plants?

Thanks
Tracey

My courgettes are full of mildew and I'm still eating the fruits. I guess as long as the peas themselves look OK, there's no problem.
