I tried growing Borlotti beans this year for the first time. The plants took a little time to establish the shot up and have developed lots of pods. However, a fair number of these haven't developed Beans yet, and are still flat. (I think the plants were planted a little later than they should have bean 😀)

Bearing in mind it's now the end of October, and I'm on the east of Central Scotland, are these likely to develop or should I just dig up and compost?

Hmm, not sure you’ll get any beans, but you could try cooking the pods like runner beans, that’s what I do early on in the season, yours might be a bit tough now, but only 1 way to find out

The plants answered my question! Went down this weekend and they were all dying back. Guess the first frost saw them off

Often the way Dave.. they know what's best in the end

Try again next year... I had a small but tasty crop this year, well worth it!
