which is really odd because when I researched this, I came up with the fact that "The peas main nutrients are phosphorus and small amounts of nitrogen. If your soil is naturally nutritious, don't add anything else, but if not add in some fertiliser with the water every 2 or 3 weeks. One way to tell whether your plant is getting enough nutrients to judge from it's colour. If the colour is pale green, you will need to give the peas more nitrogen."

Yes, even though I'm talking about my sunflowers, and not my peas, I'm pretty sure the same theory will apply to all plants.
The potting mix already has many nutrients, meaning the leaves should be greener than the backyard soil, however, this isn't the case with my sunflowers. I think I should write this down as an observation. Wow, it's nearly day 28. tomorrow is the four weeks mark! :D
yes, that's all. (:
