What kind of bean ?


several, i didn't write them down, one wax/yellow bean
that had a mottled brownish seed (couldn't quite tell
the color of the seeds from the package). another was
a purple podded bean of some sort. others too, i just
had to get out of there...


We actually I , but ... grew Kentucky Wonder last
year , but decided we don't particularly like the flavor . This year we're
... going to grow some Blue Lake , since that's the most common AFAIK
canned bean on the grocery shelf . Hey , the flavor you're used to might be
the best one to grow for home canning .


Blue Lake is very common and it works for most
people well enough that they don't ever grow any
others.


On a side note , my seedlings are doing great 'maters and peppers except
the Anaheims and Jalapenos , both of which I've reseeded in new containers
because the first planting didn't germinate after 3 weeks . Might need more
patience ...


might need more heat below.
