This last week most of my beans (red rum and also French climbing
beans) have unwound themselves.
I can only feel very slight sympathy, the slugs or snails killed all
mine.
;-)
They started on mine but I managed to rescue most of them. However, as
a result, they have become rather slow in shooting along the sticks.
Can't have everything. I read somewhere that you should put
nasturtiums amongst them as slugs prefer them to most other plants but
as I like to grow nasturtiums too, I can't see the point of that.
Nor do I! I can't grow runner or french beans, sunflowers or lupins
because of slugs, but I've never had a nasturtium touched!
