It is known that beans like the soil well drained. Even if it's a heavy clay soil they will grow in it well as long as the amount of moisture isn't too high all the time. I think our netowrk bean growers here need to keep this in mind. Especially those who live in areas that might be prone to lots of torenchial rains. It is probably going to be a good idea for those growers to grow these beans in raised beds. Unless of course you know you have a more sandy well drained soil.
My problems with the heavy rain this spring at planting time does not usually occur here, but our spring here was one of those fewer and farther between events that don't occur every single year.
