Hello,
was after some advice for my runner bean plants, they r still producing
at the moment but dont think it will b long till they r finished for the
year.
i have heard somje people say that u should cut them above the soil and
let the roots rot down in the soil????
i have been growing them in a large pot for the last 2 years and they
have done very well, should i be thinking about changing the soil
altogether or let the roots rot down and use same soil again next
year???
any advice would great thanks!!!
The best runner beans I ever saw or tasted, were grown in half
barrels. My friend lived near the New Forest and each winter went
into the forest and bought a load of well-rotted pony manure. He put
a ggod layer of this in the bottom of each barrel, fresh each year,
and topped up with some sort of commercial compost.

Thanks, Daniel..
