Sweet pea problem

Please bear with me as I am new to this site and also to gardening!

I am growing some sweet peas but the leaves are starting to go a funny colour. I have followed the guidance re planting etc, and been watering fairly frequently. Please see the photos. Any assistance would be most appreciated!

Thanks!image

    I think it is probably scorch due to the weather. Although it looks unsightly, it will not harm the plant overall.  I have raspberries that have scorched berries this year. The parts in the sun have bleached white, the rest of the berry has ripened.

    Thanks.


    I have been trying to water when the sun has gone down in the evening and at the roots. Thank you both for your advice!

    I have some the same, sun scorch doesn't harm, thankfully!
