In theory it should work. I find they give a second crop of flowers, though when I've left them, it hasn't been enough beans to justify the growing space.

I started the beans off in 3 inch plant pots back in early April so will do it earlier next year.

Any time from February is more usual. "As soon as the soil warms up". In Yorkshire I would expect to have mine in the ground in March. Water is far less of a problem early in the year.
