Lucky me that it was raining in Illinois! Thank you so much for this sneak pre-view..
What a nice looong list! And it reads like a poem :)
Do you use some of them also for mainly private consumption?
And what colour has Rwanda Sky? Light grey?
Thank you so much for listing! Very interesting!
Most names are already familiar, but some I had to look up. And it is so international! Really once around the world..
How many plants do you usually do per variety?
Wow, @Ridgerunner, are these current photos? If so, are your beans already grown that far - almost ready for harvesting??
When did you sow them? And what variety is this?
Hello @heirloomgal:frow
Well, now! Now I am but the more curious!
Do you mind listing them occasionally?
Tepary beans I haven't tried yet either. I have the impression that they want it really hot and do not stand much wetness but this may be wrong. The seedlings on your photo look very good...
140 varieties! Jesus!
In this case I think I refrain from asking you to list them here occasionally (for I am curious about it) as I do not want you to spend the whole summer writing down bean names..
Thanks a lot for the Lima answer. Precious information. Very good to know what is expecting me.. I am afraid I have to change my arrangements..
I see that you have rather the same weather like me at the moment. It is getting already very dry here too.
So do you have all your bean youngsters in...
I know what you mean! Same here. I acquired so many new varieties recently that I had to explain to several of them to remain patient until next season.
What kind of weather do you have at the moment? We almost touched the 30°C today (at night no less than 15°). Are your plants all out already?
Yes! Trebulino are a lot my taste! I never had them before. Of all network varieties they were the very last to germinate - after 12 days.. one! A 2nd and 3rd reluctantly decided on day 15. And: they want it hot. I nearly finally boiled them in the sun to lurk a little root out of their peel...
Thank you @Triffid and @flowerbug for your warm welcome! You are kind :)
My Network beans this year are:
Aeron Purple Star, Duilius, Lusaka, Ruth Bible, Dean Family Greasy, Globula, Trebulino di Domenico.
Apart from that I sow Vaquero, Zuni Shalako, Mongeta del Ganxet, Bitxo, Oregon Giant...
