Am growing borlotti beans for the first time and planning my climbing structure. Anyone know what they like to climb up?

Never grown them. I was put off when someone handed me a borlotto bean straight from the pod and said try this. It was bl@@dy horrible! I've never tried any other variety of bean straight from the pod so I have nothing to compare it to.
I wouldn't mind trying to grow them because they are very pretty. I really must research the best way to treat the finish product, because it's definitely not raw!

Beans are poisonous raw.

Reply to Heated mat for Tom's and chilliesby raryI use a mix of six scoops of compost three scoops of sand/grit and two scoops of perlite,the quantity is unimportant as long as the ratio is the same, if for seeds I use this mix, if I am potting on I add some blood, fish and bone, along with a small quantity of chicken manure pellets
