I get my seeds from Johnny's Selected Seeds in Maine. The beans are absolutely stringless! When I get to the point that I have enough snap beans to can or eat, get ready soup kitchens, here come the green beans! <br /><br />Thanks for visiting and sharing a comment with me.<br />Veggie PAK<br />(the nickname really fits this year, 'cause I'm sure packing the beans into the jars! I have 53 quarts so far this year.)Veggie PAKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13250455377130668508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3712291801064010036.post-34304009012171410932011-07-06T12:20:49.520-04:002011-07-06T12:20:49.520-04:00My husband was just saying the other day that he w...My husband was just saying the other day that he wants us to grow so many green beans that he wouldn't know what to do with all the harvest.

Good job on your first try.<br /><br /><br />Robin, Thanks! I did go plant something. I planted 3 Cherokee Purples, six okra plants and 3 jalapeno pepper plants!<br /><br /><br />kitsapFG, it is a good feeling to have such good food stockpiled in my food storage area. <br /><br /><br />The Sage Butterfly, Thanks! They're delicious when they are ripe.<br /><br /><br />Lou Murray's Green World, the grapes are supposed to start really producing in their fourth year. That's what mine are in. One died from overwatering, and that's hard to take because I've been caring for it for the first three years, and now I get nothing from it.<br /><br /><br />Annanas, I'm sure we will enjoy the grapes!<br /><br /><br />Daphne, Yes, that is a lot of green beans, but my whole family gets to eat them, kids, in'laws and all of them. When you make something(with green beans)to take to a big family dinner, you use three or four quarts at a time, so they actually go rather fast. This year will be different as I have already pressure-canned 53 quarts of green beans!<br /><br /><br />Prairie Cat, when I run out of space, I'll build more shelves! Only one vine is completely dead. We'll probably eat them fresh after I weigh them!<br /><br />Thanks for visiting and sharing a comment with me.<br /><br />Have a great gardening day!<br />Veggie PAKVeggie PAKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13250455377130668508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3712291801064010036.post-90710970725082215512011-07-05T18:37:31.169-04:002011-07-05T18:37:31.169-04:00Your beans just keep coming!

I am glad you are getting a decent harvest because I remember you posting about some of the vines dying off. what do you end up doing with them?
