Thanks for the directions, but perhaps I need to be more specific.....

....my beans were sown indoors in my window in 3" pots in early April, and approx. 4" high when I planted them out last Thursday - a day or two before the recent hot and dry weather. I was away over the weekend and they may not have had enough water, as the new leaves were crinkly. Upon further inspection, half of the plants had developing flowers close to the main growing tip....

Will this affect further growth? Or will the plants continue shooting up as normal? I have very limited space, and was pinning a lot on these beans success....I do have some back up thinnings - would you suggest pulling out the flowering ones and putting in replacements? Or even pinching out the developing flowers?

I would be very grateful for any advice you can give.....thanks!
