How do you get rid of water mold on my peas? We had a lot of rain and suddenly the weather changed to really high temperatures and scorching sun. I see today half my peas have a white film and so do the leaves.

    I know of a couple, one is about a tsp peroxide to 2 cups of water and put in sprayer, other is baking soda spray, both work on fungus

    Water from the bottom, never over the top.

    Not sure what state you are in but in Oregon we are scorching, as well as the garden. My peas taking a hard hit.

    What has worked for me is water at dusk or early before heat of the day. I give them morning sun until 12-1 and then block that extreme heat with cheap white table cloth. I dont lay it right on top as they need air to circulate. I did 4 corner stakes and laid it over top.
