I've stopped picking mine and I'm letting them grow fat into beans rather than pods. If the weather stays fine they will dry on the plant and I can use them for soups etc. I hope! If not they will be into the dehydrator.

Hi Annen.
I am still in the experimental stage with my dehydrator but am interested in that you dehydrate your bean seeds. Is this for use in cooking during the winter? How long do you dry them for? Where do you store them after they have dried? Sorry for so many questions.

I've picked 54 lbs runners which has been far too many.. I've frozen about 60 or more take away containers with enough for the 4 of us.

BTW but I bet you didnt get 88lbs of Strawbs like I did BQ.... or 220 sweet corn plants all producing well!!

I think i beat you on strawberries but i didntgrow that much corn.
Had 90lb of beetroot too with probably the same to come still

Blimey BQ!!! .... and I thought I grew too much stuff!! Even have another freezer from freecycle waiting to go into my shed!! I've now also been accused by our ex Chairman who is spreading rumors about me supposedly selling my veg - boy is he in for a surprise at our AGM in two weeks time - going to be named and shamed
