How to fertilize Lathyrus Hirsutus
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Lathyrus Hirsutus after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

My plant is dying and I don’t know what’s wrong My plant pete has been dying and I don’t know what’s wrong. So it first started when his soil was wet for a very long time and when it first in a long time turned dry only in the middle though, I took this opportunity to water him because I was concerned. Then after this his soil was just wet for so long and today I watered him knowing yes that his soil still looked wet. And I come back from school and his leaves are falling off more and I don’t know what to do. I’m scared, I don’t want him to die. Please help! The pictures are from today. BTW, the first picture is only the middle part of him, the top part has a couple of leaves and his pea. And stem is still strong.

Spooky Cat has made an appearance. I also impulsively bought this beauty while picking up extra candy for trick or treating at the store. This is my redemption arc after not knowing how to take care of an orchid and losing all its blooms and still has not regrown flower shoots for two years. #catsofgreg #catsandplants #spookyseason #greggetsspooky

Am I watering too much?

Does anyone know why my pea plant’s leaves are yellow and dead towards the bottom of the plant? It may just be that it’s too hot here for them to be at their best. It’s consistently 95-100 degrees.
