Green beans leaping up netting
 

There was a thread about pruning -- was it tomatoes? -- where it was
thought that pruning wouldn't hurt output? Have I got that right?

I am facing similar situation. My green bean vines just LEAPED up the
6-foot netting, and now are waving their antennae in open air. I am
reluctant to prune when they have barely begun to flower, much less
fruit. Should I train them to start down wards? Or? Tx for any
help.

Leave your green beans alone, gravity will tend to them.

After two decades of growing pole beans that do the same thing, I can
confidently say, don't worry about it.
