    Picked my first runner beans this morning, A whole lb now sliced ready for the pot. If any one is interested I soaked the beans overnight then potted then into fibre pots on April the 1st! put the pots into a big plastic box out side on the garden table kept the lid on till they sprouted then just took the lid of during the day and hey presto good strong healthy plants, no root disturbance when planting them out,mid May.
