Last year I grew very successfully, and for the first time, runner

which, in your opinion, have the best flavour.


Don't call me picky, but if there was a distinct lack of flavour, how
were you very successful? loads of tasteless greenery?


Thank you for your replies - something to think over! I hope to get more
flavour this year.
I had a lot of beans and picked them when they were quite small - one
stringy bean will ruin a panful of good beans!


I'm wondering whether too much water makes for less flavour? On the
other hand, is it actually possible to give to much water to a runner
bean?
