undercover beans - how early
« on: January 02, 2009, 16:01 »
for those that grow undercover how early do you plant/sow your beans.

I only started with my PT in April 08 so haven't got any experience in sowing the early crops.
Try my best to be Organic but don't always make it

I start some broad beans off indoors about the beginning of February so they can be transplanted out in March. I don't know about growing under cover though sorry.

I was thinking of sowing next month but not sure if that's too early

:shock:  oh no - too early for french & runner beans little sweetpeas, even under cover!  Personally I would wait until about late March for my area, and even then indoors to be planted out mid-May (hopefully after the last frost)
Failure is only a temporary change in direction to set you straight for your next success.
Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.
