I would mulch bush bean well for weed control and some bush plants when they become mature lay over on the ground. Good mulching will keep them healthier and off the soil. You will appreciate the mulching you did when some of the plants you save for seed start drying pods.

This is a good note, thank you. I have a large pile of mulch i was going to use, and maybe some of the garden fabric too (with not enough mulch for plant rooting on top).

IF you were to watch me around the house YOU would diagnose ME as ADHD. I start a job, on the way to do something else I get distracted by another job, then a rest, then I stop and start a few more.
Really, so MANY of us are like that and the NORM.
It is the NON ADHD that are unusual.
Yes, focus is a good thing, but I need to not have distractions.
My 11mo GSD is Always distracting me, along with my favorite cat and her sisters and male cousin.
The ponies just need feeding every day--they don't distract, but my gardening distracts me, too.
Feel better?

Lol me too. I went undiagnosed, and its still not on any charts, bc I dont want meds ect. I did find several tricks and techniques to help when I started looking though. Such as a clock that sounds the time, and having a "point of work" where everything i need for a task is kept conveniently close to where I need it, preferably within arms reach. This might seem basic, but helps me alot. Less travel for supplies=less wandering off and forgetting what I was doing.
