Im a bit worryed mine wont cling to the roof now that they have reached the top of the back 4ft wall.
Everbody is watchin my frame with intrest, already had ppl planning on making one next yr if mine works.
Sounds as if my runners are a spit in front of yours.... (or my lower side is lower than yours) - as my beans are romping away along the "roof". Spotted two tiny beans this evening.
The bottom of my plants, like yours, are really bushy but they are getting the idea - "up, up and away"
and....they are coping with an onslaught of blackfly
(early this year?).
I've had just one comment from neighbouring plot holders = "I see you've tried a new bean-frame." But I have had others taking a new route across the allotments and my paths are getting more wear than usual!!
Perhaps muntys will be spring up around me next year - if I don't knock myself out or get strangled scrabbling about underneath the frame when the beans are big enough to pick!
