This post is going to be extremely picture-heavy so bear with me!
This has been a great year for my peas, which have grown to a gargantuan size. They're now well over 4 feet tall…. or at least they used to be! I usually use tomato cages as supports for my peas and they're never outgrown the cages, but these plants were head and shoulders above their supports and then we got a windy storm at the end of the week. 
So here is a recap of the peas so far, in case they do not rebound from the damage :(
Time will tell on these guys. I'm really hoping that at least some of them are okay seeing as I was really looking forward to some home grown peas!

| My kinda solution to the problem… At least they're off the ground now right? | 
| Some of the stalks definitely appear to have snapped a bit | 
| Or snapped almost entirely off... | 
| A few only look like they got bent though and that's where my hope comes from! |
