    That'll be what's wrong with mine then

      My pea-shoots do seem to be recovering a bit, but also flowering so they are going to find themselves in a salad today or tomorrow!

        I emptied my seedlings out the GH this morning and left the in partial shade not ideal but I've been out all day. They'd have been ok in the GH if I'd have potted them on so that's tomorrows job.

          Good to see they have recovered. I find pea shoots start flowering after a while. If they do I leave them to it and get a few peas a couple of weeks later.

            I rigged up a shiny foil shade # in front of mine to avoid the sunlight effect.
