I've been saving seed from runners and french beans. Seed size varies
enormously, does that affect the result next year?

* I sort and keep ones that are even, plump and firm with a shiny perfect
"skin". Only because that's what my grandfather did. Since I've never
planted the runty lumpy/dented/nicked *ones I don't know if selection
makes any difference at all :-)

I just save the seeds from the best pods,
I've always understood if you plant from runts you will loose the
quality, select for improvement.
