If they are seedless that’s ok if not you are waiting to long to pick. I pick them small because I don’t like big seeds.

I dug the last 2 potato plants yesterday, picked a few tomatoes and have picked 10 gallons of blueberries in the last week. I have a ton of Lima’s getting full and should be ready by end of the week.

This is my first year growing the yard long beans. How long have people been growing them around here? I hadn't heard of them til this year.

This is my first year also. Apparently, people on this board have been growing them for two or three years.

I like traditional green beans better, but these SOBs produce like crazy and grow really fast.

These are a couple Cherokee purple I just picked along with slices of a Texas 1015 my brother in law grew on his Uvalde Ranch. Along with some Irish cheddar they went on a couple of burgers we cooked this evening. Man they are good.

I got a ton of purple green beans and lots of cucumbers off my 3 plants. My kids and I can find the purple ones, I can’t see the damn green ones.

My tomatoes are producing like crazy but nothing is ripe yet.

My holdover peppers are doing great also with lots of ripe ones already.
