They will get too hot in a greenhouse and the flowers will just drop without
forming a bean. Better het them outside asap



Now here's a thing. I have always planted my runners in pots early so
that they get a good start, then plant out when all chance of frost has
gone. This year I was short of plants, so on planting them out I made up
for the shortfall with pushing seeds into the soil next to the bean
sticks. Here I am now with all the beans at the same height, however the
direct sown ones are much healthier looking with a deeper green and much
larger leaves, I look forward to seeing which crops first and best!
