@jbosmith I grew 4 plants of MN150 in a small flower pot. I was pretty happy turning 4 seeds into 89. I’m sure they would have done much better in the soil. The seed has a unique coloration.

First of the season MN13 @Zeedman I have a flower pot that has a couple plants I’m saving for seed. These came from what I labeled as Puny Pea Patch. It was a plant or two of every variety I had that didn’t look so great, so I just stuck them in one area by themselves. As it turns out, they...

@Zeedman Just to touch base with you. The MN150 do not seem to mind being grown in a container. These were very resilient and even after sustaining damage during a storm they bounced right back. They are also the first peas to bloom and make peas. I grew several varieties this year and these...

Great job @heirloomgal !

I like Texas chili. Meat, Spices, Peppers. However, I do like pinto beans in my chili. Something that makes some Texans cringe. :hide I dunno about corn, squash, macaroni. It probably taste good, no doubt, but I’d call something like that … soup. Seriously though, I never understood why...

@Spike This is the thread where I hang out. Your mission is to start at the beginning and let me know once you’ve caught up. Haha. Once done, we’ve got a few more years of threads. LAUGHING! Well….you said you liked beans.

I see you made it! This is a friend of mine everyone.

@Zeedman It’s not a runner bean, but I have a friend that sent me a few of these. https://www.adaptiveseeds.com/product/vegetables/beans/pole-snap-bean-kew-blue-organic/

@meadow That is very interesting! I’d like to save the information in your post for history.

There is only 1 variety I have grown. I got it from a fellow named Jim Wright if my memory serves me correctly. It’s called Insuk’s Wang Kong. Here’s a little story about them. I’m sure @Zeedman remembers this bean as a bunch of us used to hang out on Gardenweb in the bean forum. At one time The...

@Zeedman Biggest growth this week was MN150 Cowpea.

@heirloomgal Pale Grey Lavender is such a pretty bean!

From what I understand, They also gave the corn a nice head start. I don’t grow beans on corn at least I haven’t yet, but if I were to, I’d choose a sturdy corn say like hickory king and I’d let it get a good hold and start growing long before I planted any beans. I’ve read lots of literature on...

@Zeedman Beautiful!!!!

Howdy. That tells you hello and where I’m from using just 1 word. Hahahaaaa!

I just got back from the store too. I found watermelon mint and cherry/strawberry tea. I haven’t tried either, but supposedly, you just drop the bag in a bottle of water. I reuse soda bottles and refill them from my berkey. The water bottles they sell these days are so flimsy, you can’t even...

Thank you @Bluejay77 for the detailed explanation. It will sure beat a string attached to a tree limb as that’s what I generally do.
