Thanks for starting this thread Two_Sheds, I was going to ask a bean question too but it is being answered here - I wondered how many beans per cane. I dug my bean trench yesterday and put grass cuttings in the bottom, I am now slowly sieving all the soil back on top of this (hope I am doing it right, never grown tall beans before). I was hoping to use branches from my privet trimming instead of bamboo but today Madmax and I took some stuff to the tip and there in one of the big skips was a huge pile of canes - must be 8 footers at least! We dug out a whole load and they will get used for my beans - lucky find
