I put seeds in later than most & my vegies catch up quickly, my pumpkins only take 70 days this way. I have a guide that says to put beans in at the end of summer.

What about water? My pole beans just seem to be a little on the wilting side. Did I give them too much/not enough water? Maybe?

Ot was noce talkin to ya.

Good tips in the video. I planted a few bean seeds in a container which is now growing great & are really tall, except for one thing ; the color of the leaves now half way up the pole are stippled with a very pale light green. I've checked out as much as I can on virus & diseases & can't find anything similar looking. So now I'm thinking it's a mineral problem, too much or not enough of something. Can you give me any advice on where to go, or what url to use where I can figure it out? I'ld show you a photo but I don't use social media. Thanks

I wonder if you could tell me what is wrong with my beans. They are growing but when they get to be about 2" they start turning brown and dying. Thanks for the great video.

please help me grow some okra in Houston. where would be the best place to buy okra seeds. I enjoyed your video thank you. I'm trying hard to do a good garden and have some wonderful fruit.

Super video! But now I need some help since I am green at this.
Made raised beds, put in the soil and enhanced it with worm castings and other stuff.
Planted beans--Bush Beans.
Beans began to grow, and beans began forming--OK, so far so good.
THEN
Beans began to develop some type of fungus, or something!? Leaves turned a silvery reddish color with spots.
Beans stop growing.
Decided to pull them all up and replant.
Strange, as I turned the soil, after pulling all the plants, I found NO earthworms!
So, I am going to go to another part of the back yard and dig where I suspect there are worms and place them in this bed before replanting.
Any thoughts.
Thanks

Hey I want to know , I transplanted the same height of plant in my raised bed a month ago but they are not growing anymore, can you please tell me what's the reason, I have also fed them with all purpose fertilizer and sea weed and my compost is organic with mulch..I am watering them .. Same thing is with my pumpkin plant.. I want to know if it's really ok with these plants ? ..it's summer here in uk , n the sun light duration is pretty much more than you mentioned

I started 2 blue lake bush beans from store bought seedlings in 5 gallon containers in early May. I live in south Louisiana, they did great at first, now I'm barely picking as much as I was a few weeks ago. Also I have white and brown spots on the leaves. Any tips or advice?

GREAT. VIDEO

Seems like there's way more gardening channels and guides online from northern regions, which seems kinda strange. I'm using my amazing powers of deduction to assume you're in Michigan. Anyway, thanks for the tips. I'm a newbie and doing lima beans for the first time here in zone 4-5 (4b probably)

great video no Bean planting here yet I'm out recovering all the crops that I got out in the garden now coming a frost tonight

what would be a good size bean to pick?

Im growing my beans in a planter ,growing fast thank you. What kind of camcorder you have, great sound and video quality.

will my worm casting soil from the woods have to much nitrogen

How much water does just one plant need? How many cups of water a day/week? Thanks! Also you have some good videos!!

Thanks so much for taking the time to teach us how to grow bush beans properly. I'm a subscriber now!:)

What causes bush beans to turn yellow?
A friend of mine just transferred hers to a green house and this has happened in a few days.
It has been in the 60's where she is at, so I am not sure the temperature is a problem, but I'm no expert.

Young, good looking, well spoken and actually know what you are talking about. You are the full package, my friend. Thanks for making all these videos. I have learned a lot about gardening. Keep up the good work!

My beans are tall and viney and have a lot of leaves a few flowers but no fruit yet?
