I start my Phaseolus beans in paper pots, too.
So, it was nothing to do with transplanting into bigger pots then? Hmm I
know I was late sowing ... I might try again next year. When is the best
time to sow the seeds?

I normally sow mine starting end of March, indoors, then some more in
April. And probably some more in May. And if any failed, then maybe
a couple more in June.

Thanks very much, Vicky. I'll put that on my calendar I am hoping to be
at home much more next year so will probably have better luck, weather
permitting. We are meant to be going away today but most of the roads we
need to use are blocked.
