Default Runner Beans

When will you sow Runner Beans this year assuming that sometime in the
next 3 months the temperature will reach 60 degrees?


It's not the temperature it will rise to that is the thing to worry about
it's what temperature it will go down to that should guide your planting of
such things. I can't put them out till the end of May, Chelsea time, when
the possibility of frost is over (although we did get one on the 9th June a
few years back). So as they usually only take about 4 weeks to grow to
planting size in our greenhouse I will plant beginning of May in 7"
rootrainers and then some more later.
