French Climbing Beans - Help!
« on: July 14, 2009, 17:07 »
Our French Climing beans seem to be dying, the leaves are going Brown/light Orange colour.

They get plenty of water and plant food, but are being kept in a large pot!

We have some other French Climbing Beans in the gound that are doing really well.

Could they be pot bound at all? Or is there something we are not doing?
In a severe lightning storm, grab ya ankles, and stick ya butt in the air.

If you can, try tilting the pot to see underneath in case the roots are growing out the bottom. I don't know about vine weevil or other insect attack but someone on here will advise, I'm sure.
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

That would be a bit awkward to do as it's really heavy and it would all topple over.

Thanks for that though!
