    I don't seem to have much rust on the pods the black/brown marks are where the snails had eaten into them. A couple of the smaller plants have withered so I think they've had it, hopefully the others will survive.
    I planted my seeds indoors, they were a good 6" high when I planted them out and where my runner beans didn't do very well and I had to plant more, my broad beans thrived.
    I will plant them in a different place next year I been told it's not good to keep growing things in the same place all the time so I will move things around each year.

      I planted some beans inside and some straight into the ground, both are the same size and producing, the variety is The Sutton", a small plant that I have to say isn't my favourite to eat. Will try another type next year, not sure what yet, any recommendations people?

        I grew The Sutton this year too - scruffy little plants, but fairly productive, the beans get very big very fast though.
        Next year I'm going back to Wizard beans, and I'm trying Superaquadulce for overwintering.

          Red Epicure are very tasty.
