Crop Rotation

Hi

We are planning a 4 bed rotation system - but thinking ahead for next year we have been told that it is not necessary to rotate runner beans. Is this true? Where they are in the garden is a fantastic spot and the wigwams fit perfectly so if no need to move then that would be great - any advice appreciated

Thanks

I rotate my beans, but it isn't necessary. If you've got a nice spot, just make sure they get plenty of nice rotted manure dug in during the autumn ready for the next season's beans!
