There were a lot of threads about this last year beansticks, I'd suggest a quick search will reveal some of them.

Most people were less than overjoyed with the results - they went in too late, and/or got frosted and thus killed.

However, if you want to give it a try and are prepared to protect from frost, it's worth a try
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...
