Green beans and barley
Hi all, I'm new here.
I have got a problem with my green beans - they are about 20 cm tall but have begun to bend and their leaves wither. How much water do they need? Also can anyone provide some comments on growing barley? PS - I'm from Singapore, i.e. tropical weather. TIA. -- cheers Perrin I was so much older then I'm younger than that now |

Stick your finger in the dirt. If you don't detect moisture after the first joint, they need water. Does anything else in your garden exhibit the same behaviour? -- Persephone Also can anyone provide some comments on growing barley? PS - I'm from Singapore, i.e. tropical weather. TIA. |

Thanks. What does it mean when the roots are turning brown?

Green beans and barley
I have got a problem with my green beans - they are about 20 cm tall but have begun to bend and their leaves wither. How much water do they need? Also can anyone provide some comments on growing barley? I would doubt that either green beans (P. vugarus) or barley will grow in Singapore as these are cool weather plants. I would expect heat to take out either, There is an African version(P. acutifolius) that might work in your climate. On top of that, root rot oranisms seem to proliferate in warmer soils evn in the souther part of the U.S. |
