BEANS BEANS BEANS !!!!!

I have just been out setting beans... again I have plonked them straight into the compost... I usually start them off in toilet roll tubes -but the peas I started of this way this time have had a poor germination rate -and its not the seed as the same ones set straight outside seem to be on their way through ;-)

So I have just set :-

1. 9 borlotto lingua di fuoco 2
2. 9 "sultana" french
3. 9 "desiree" runner
4. 5 white lady runner -the last I have so I will save some this year
5. 9 "pea bean" french climbing
6. 9 blue
7. 9 "Kentucky yellow"
8. 8 "rot" runner beans
9. 9 "ustia" soya beans

I have a couple of other varieties to set, so will get them out tomorrow..

I also managed to transplant my mini turnips into a trough this morning....oh and the beetroot my mum sent me has started to come through this morning..its called solo -and you just get one beetroot per seed -so no thinning out required :-)

The squash and melons I set out yesterday don't seem to have suffered at all either -fingers crossed it stays that way...
