I thought it was perfectly clear that if one has, in the soil, a runner
bean plant growing through a large hole in the base of an upturned 8/9 inch
flower pot and one puts about an inch of water in the pot, the roots of the
bean would be watered but it seems that some people must be as thick as the
clay subsoil in my garden for they could not understand how the bean roots
were watered!!!!
