My pole beans appear to be taking quickly to my setup with a single pole in the middle and then multiple lines of twine coming down from the top (making a sort of christmas tree shape).
A lot of the pole beans I planted never sprouted, which is a little disappointing as I bought them from good sources and took the time to soak them beforehand as instructed.
Also found a fair number of little slugs in my potato towers for the first time (babies, I assume)? I know many of the traditional, ground-planting remedies for them, but am unsure what to do about them in a tall tire-tower filled with wet straw? Maybe put an open bottle of beer in each tower? :-)
