Bent beans!
« on: June 23, 2006, 18:52:51 »
First year growing dwarf beans or any other bean come to that (variety 'The Prince'). Loads of pods are merrily growing away but in all the pictures I've seen, and those beans I've bought from the supermarket the pods are straight whereas mine are crescent shaped.

Two questions: Will they straighten out later? How will I know when they're ready to pick?

All my yellow bush beans did that last year - in the end I resigned myself to thinking of them as a gourmet prawn shaped variety ???
