You might come to the decision that it ain't necessary to dig at all ...

Don't know about being too old for the work, it sounds like I could do with borrowing you!

I was trying to work out why you needed a bean trench eight foot deep! then I put my specs on

You say its your "last bean ditch". How many have you dug altogether?

Maybe to grow a bean pole capable of climbing up to another land in the clouds.........

I have 2 trenches, one on a new patch of ground and the other on my main patch. Broad and dwarf french on one trench and czar and trail of tears on the other.

if only we didnt have to dig.....

Two trenches - I understand why you feel tired. I don't dig bean trenches - mainly because I'm lazy!
Ask Two Sheds about no dig.

If ya don't wanna dig, don't dig! I don't!

Have a look at the "no dig" method. Bags of info on here, too!

You haven't come across any siberian/serbian beans capable of this have you Newton? I only ask because as you've probably noticed, I've lost some

first year that I dug a bean trench this year. Couldn't say I noticed an appreciable difference in the beans, in fact, I think they fizzled out sooner than they usually do.
They did crop extrememly heavily, but then, they do that every year.

probably should have read the replies above mine, before posting my ever-so-helpful reply

I got no beans this year, even with the trench, so I'm not doing that anymore either.
