Title: Yellow Runner Beans
Post by: Little Gem on June 21, 2009, 08:49:07 pm

Hello,

I'm a little concerned about my runner beans.  The leaves are very yellow and the plants are not growing very fast, is this normal?

Its been a slow cold year this year there will be a shortage of beans no doubt. I would guess that your beans are suffering from the cold. You may be lucky and they will grow through it

My outdoor runners were the same but my polytunnel ones are 5 times better!
I gave mine a feed (see taking the piss thread!!) and they are looking up! The leaves are greening up
