Location Location Location

I've planted all over the yard. There is full sun and in Miami full sun can mean 14 hours of sun. I have some things planted in shade, which still means 6-7 hours of sun. With the summer rains beginning, I'm not as concerned with sun as I am with flooding. It seems the best location has been on the south side of the house, in a raised bed, without roof run off. The daily rains this week blow in but don't drown. The plants are dark green and growing strong.

The peas are not doing well though. They've grown tall but my research tells me they are suffering from powdery mildew. Some reading tells me to try sulphur powder. Any advice out there?
