More of Mike Desmarais' garden. It looks like Mike plants his beans in succession. Starting beans from seed every 2-3 weeks will keep you harvesting longer. It will also prevent all your beans maturing at one time. That's fine if you're canning. But if you like to eat your beans fresh, it's best to keep planting new seed throughout the season.
