browning runner beans...............
« on: April 12, 2010, 20:07 »
i grew from seed or "bean" 6 runner bean plants but they are now over 2 foot high (they grew so quickly!!) and thus relegated from window sill or my neighbors will think i am growing something i shouldn't be !!   but seriously - put them in greenhouse (small plastic one) in garden 4 days ago and tonight they are browning on leaves and the new shoots slightly crisps - have been open i day so get sun without being too hot, but very cold wind here on South coast  - but think they may die...................shame they were such a success but i may have to buy a few plants as stand buy. This means my Toms, cherry toms, cucumbers, peppers are all staying on the window sill, so neighbors may wonder after all !!!

roll on warm weather when they can all live outside happily...... :( :(
if i plant it, will it grow ?

Plenty of time to start some new seeds off (at 2 feet high in mid April yours were started too early even for Eastbourne!)

As for your neighbours I would suggest offering some of your dried peppers as a possible tobacco substitute (think it might open their eyes, possibly permanently!)  ::)
Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

One of the best things about being an orang-utan is the fact that you don't lose your good looks as you get older
