Sun scald has been brutal this year. I even thought about putting up some of black mesh cloth (comes in tarp size) and see if that'll help.

Yesterday I cut down all my green bean and butter bean rows. The butter beans never did do much.

One thing this year that I tried just as a WTF lets see what happens. I bought bags of black beans and black eye peas from the grocery store and planted them. BOTH put out like gang busters. The black eye peas put out better than anything else I planted. I have gotten 3 bushels off of them so far and they are full of blooms again as we speak. Just food for thought.

Did black beans a few years ago. Just wasn’t worth the squeeze for me. Too much space and TLC for a couple lbs of dried beans. Got purple hulls loaded with blooms right now.
