    Have planted peas in the back of the garden couple of weeks ago. With the rain I have had this week where I live, that patch is now waterlogged. I know they can't be moved, so I will have to risk leaving them in. Any suggestions?

    The peas have grown an inch

    Welcome to the forum :)

    It depends on how long they remain waterlogged, they will be OK for a few days.Any chance of digging a sump or allowing the water to drain off to a lower part of the garden?
