    Hi, I have just lost most of my peas to mildew and now I think my leeks have it, or something similar. Is this as serious on leeks as it is on peas.

    Were your peas just about finished blacksmith? They do go all mildewy as they die off anyway (peas that is). It doesn't sound good if your leeks have caught it and it will do them harm if it gets bad, though seldom kills the plants right off. hopefully some of this predicted hot weather will help your leeks to out-grow the mildew.
