welcome aboard.

i'm guessing those beans are not fully dried yet and will get darker with age?

Russ, do you want me to send you back the 52 Andikove I got, or try for more next year? I have plenty of Frost beans to send back, although I think I would like them to dry out a bit more.

Try to grow them again next year. Now you have more beans to work with.

Wondering about bush dry beans that might show some resistance or tolerance to white mold (Sclerotinia). I really have a problem many years in my bush beans with white mold taking off during prolonged wet periods, which we get at least every other year. I'd like a high yield dry bean that I could feel more confident about. It can be amazing how fast the mold spreads in just a couple of wet days, and its usually after there are lots of pods set on and the plants start to flop together from the weight, which allows the fungus to run along from plant to plant in huge patches.
