Default Dwarf french beans, easy?

Are dwarf french beans easy to grow. I have never grown them before.
They were easy to germinate and now some are in pots and others in
big raised beds. Any tips for a really good crop?
Thanks, Diana


Sounds like you've done pretty much everything you need to ensure a
good crop. Beans like a good, rich soil and plenty of water - if you
give them that they'll grow away without much trouble at all.

Just make sure to pick the beans regularly, to ensure further
cropping.

Depending on your location you might have to protect the crop from
pigeons, rabbits and deer....not much else seems to go for beans.
