if i can find an earlier variety from an

is ok, i'll switch the whole crop.

There's a Seed Savers group in the US so it might be worth trying them to
see if they ahve any other varieties.

good idea. i'll give them a look.


if my estimate of the harvest this year is correct
one bean gives between a 50 to 75 return.

That's a pretty good result.

after getting so little return at the bank
it's nice to have something that does well.

LOL. I dont' know what the interest rate is on my money. So long as it's
not negative and i'm losing money, I can live with a low return as I dont'
touch capital anyway.

i can live with it too as i know it
won't be going like this forever.

growing dry beans means i can be a
true bean counter when the currencies of
the world all go *boom!* at the same
time.


questions always ok, this e-mail address is
good.

Thank you for the kind offer.

you're welcome,

follower or believer. i know you mean
it as sarcasm, etc., but wow...

Nah. It was not meant as sarcasm, just a faint touch of whimsy.
