I put climbing beans (Cobra?) in the ground three weeks ago and they've all sprouted (half within the week), although all that rain a couple of weeks ago meant the slugs had a go.
Looking pretty good now and the dry warm forecast means they should be off to the races. -
Anyone tried direct sowing their beans?
I have but given the pot ones didn't germinate I'm not surprised there's no action so far either, dud seeds I reckon.

I haven't but I know my Dad has stopped doing that with his as the've failed to germinate several years in a row due to cold springs followed by long dry spells. (like the one we appear to be embarking on now)
