I'm experimenting with Red Noodle beans this year. Next year, I'll either grow Gold Rush, or go back to Blue Lake. Four foot of cattle pannel space is all that is needed to grow as many pole beans as I need. Once Pole Beans start producing, they produce until fall. Some of my slicer tomatoes are starting to blush, so tomatoes any day. Now I'll have tomatoes to go with my cucumbers. I'm having to eat three each day to keep up with them, and production is increasing.

[@beckymartinez9926]

I’m also experimenting with noodle beans. They are starting to flower now. I love gold rush and blue lake beans. 🫘 👩🏼‍🌾

[@CaliKim29]

Jay, your garden sounds immaculate!!!! Nice work! I just love your posts...CK

[@suzannegrimes9743]

It’s amazing how you tuck vegy’s in some of those spots. I’ll try some runner beans again but I’ll clip them back next time! I always learn something new with every one of your videos!!! ❤

[@CaliKim29]

Hi Suzanne - clipping the top really helps with production and managing the size. Gardening is a journey - glad to hear you're learning something new every time! Keep at it!

Love this video! I was thinking, as you were talking about the succession planting that I need to be more mindful about my succession planting. And then I thought ‘I wonder if she has a template or a pattern we can follow?’’ And then you seemed to answer my question by showing the raised bed garden book, which I actually have! I guess I forgot that inside is the pattern! I have a scarlet runner bean plant right now growing on each side of my trellis that I put up this past spring.

[@CaliKim29]

I LOVE when that happens, Stephanie!!! You are such a fantastic gardener and the best KZbin subscriber! CK

[@helenmcclellan452]

These scarlet runner beans have the prettiest flowers. I will have to grow them next year.

[@CaliKim29]

They are and you should!!! LMK, when you plant them! CaliKim

[@krisp5204]

Love them! This is my first year growing them on both sides of an archway trellis and they make such a gorgeous statement!

[@Toad1973.]

Beans are beautiful and tasty. Love the idea of them along our back fence. I planted some around our coverd patio were all the roof supports are.

[@CaliKim29]

Sounds nice!! I bet it looks pretty, too! Good job! CaliKim

[@JanetKFish]

Rattlesnake beans are my favorite. I succession plant them. At the end of the season I let them dry up and I harvest the seeds for next year. Been doing that for years. Thanks for a great video.

[@CaliKim29]

Very good, Janet!!! Sounds like you have it down. GREAT job and you are welcome for the video! I appreciate you commenting! CaliKim

[@susanpayne5592]

I’m growing Roma bush beans in a 4x8 raised bed. They are a flat bean with incredible flavor.

[@CaliKim29]

Sounds yummy, Susan! Great job growing your own food, there's nothing else like it!! Keep it going - CaliKim

[@michaelinejunefrost9437]

Great video Kim & Jerry! You have me talked into trying that scarlet runner bean. Need to check my “seed stash” to see if I have any … if not - shopping I must go!

[@CaliKim29]

LOL! Well,you know where to shop, right? calikimgardenandhome.com *cough cough!!! CaliKim

[@michaelinejunefrost9437]

Yes Girl, and almost one hundred dollars later … I gotta lotta good gardening stuff a’comin’ - the May box, your bean collection, Mac on a magnet, and a few other goodies! I rescued/adopted a six-month-old German Shepherd pup in February and all my “spare” money (haha, yeah, spare -right?) has been going to her stuff (a new pet is like a new baby - they need a lotta stuff!) … but it’s June, and my birthday is coming in a few days (my pup’s too, ‘cause I pronounced that she was born June 10th, 2023) and I decided to treat me to your top quality CaliKim garden goodies. I’m anxiously waiting for my CaliKim garden goody box to arrive! Thanks Kim, Jerry, Mac, and the entire CaliKim crew for the awesome work y’all do!🤠🐕 From June & Sophie

[@CaliKim29]

Your garden is so colorful and beautiful 😍

[@CaliKim29]

Thank you so much 😊. CaliKim

[@ramonajolley1966]

Hi Kim, this was very, very interesting!! I will pop more beans in and fill in the spaces. Thanks!!

[@CaliKim29]

Glad it was helpful! CK

[@stephaniegee227]

We've had good success with bush beans here, but this year we're trying a climbing(?) bean for a long bean. We're trying both this year. Fingers crossed!

[@CaliKim29]

Nice! I LOVE that you are trying new things in the garden. A lot of folks never try new things! You just have to...just for fun, even!! Keep us posted, Stephanie - Kim

[@EnvironmentalCoffeehouse]

Helpful and happy video Kim! Thanks!

[@CaliKim29]

Glad it was helpful! Thank you! CK

[@larainechavez796]

I have your burgundy bush beans in a smart pot and they are doing great! I just harvested some and they are delicious!! Thank you for introducing me to this variety.

[@MichaelTheophilus906]

My first planting of blue lake beans rotted. I replanted them today. Seattle zone 8b. Should be picking beans in late July or early August.

[@CaliKim29]

Wonderful! You got it, Laraine! You are doing great in the garden! CK

[@da1stamericus]

Hi akim. I agree with needing space for runner beans, but if you only have a balcony, only grow about two in 50 liter pot. I've done this a few times and wow, great Scarlett runner beans. Nice video.

[@CaliKim29]

Thanks for the tips! That is really helpful for all of the balcony growers!!! Thank you! CK

[@TabithaTexasgirl]

Your garden is amazing 😍

[@CaliKim29]

Thank you, and thanks for watching and commenting, too! CaliKim

[@betterlivingonabudget]

Wow, so many varieties of beans I've never heard of. love it! I bet a 3-bean salad at CaliKim's house looks beautiful!! 💚😍

[@CaliKim29]

Oh yess, CameraGuy just LOVES the salads. He still loves it when I say, "I'll be right back, I'm headed out to the garden to get the salad!" CaliKim

[@ramonajolley1966]

I Kim, are the Scarlet runner and rattle snake beans a typ of dry bean?

[@CaliKim29]

Scarlet runner beans and rattlesnake beans can be used as dry beans, but they are not exclusively dry beans alone - but also in their fresh form! CK

[@mousehouse6446]

I hate getting powdery mildew i cant get rid of it when i grow zucchini or squash

[@CaliKim29]

Powdery mildew is a nuisance, for sure. Somethings to try - Plant Resistant Varieties -read seed package lables. Optimize spacing and sunlight. Water at the base of the plant, not overhead watering. Apply organic mulch. Remove now the infected parts, use organic fungicides, ie. Neem oil. Last, improve the air circulation around your plants and rotate your crops each year to reduce powdery mildew spore in the soil. What do you think? Are you up for it? I think you can do it! CaliKim

[@DennisD-yv4ys]

Omg i love scatlett runner beans too! I planted them all over lol....but im actually super excited about these fava beans i planted this year for first time! Ever heard of them?

[@CaliKim29]

Yes, I have. Let me know how they are doing!! CaliKim

[@DennisD-yv4ys]

@@CaliKim29 definitely will and I'm trying some in heavily shaded areas taste well to see🌱🌱

[@najahasamarai787]

Hi may question which beans test like black eye beans I love the test I live in zone 4 and black eye beans like more hot wither 2nd q is the scarlet runner beans tolerates cold ? And any other beans test like scarlet runner beans Thanks Najah

[@CaliKim29]

Black-eyed peas do prefer warmer weather, but if you're in zone 4, you might have success with other beans that have a similar flavor. Cowpeas, like black-eyed peas, may not thrive in cooler temperatures, but Navy beans and Great Northern beans have a mild, earthy taste that could be a good substitute for black-eyed peas in your region. Scarlet runner beans are a bit more cold-tolerant than many other beans, and they can handle some light frost once established. They thrive in cooler climates, making them a great option for zone 4. As for flavor, Royal Burgundy and Kentucky Wonder beans have a rich taste similar to scarlet runners and may also do well in cooler conditions. If you are finding my channel helpful - do subscribe and the thumbs up the videos that you watch! That would be appreciated!!! Keep me posted - CK

[@ManishKumar-ud5so]

Thank you Kelly! I love your videos. Sunflowers are very invasive n multiply like weeds the following year. How do you keep them In check?

[@CaliKim29]

Select a non-invasive variety (if not too late). Try physical barriers - beds, root barriers, edging, etc. Maintenance - deadheading, pruning and weeding. Mulching - thick layer. Pick a good manageable spot. Companion planting-ground cover-dense growing crops. Monitor and remove - Keep a close watch and remove any new plants that pop up immediately. Hope this helps! CALIKIM

[@esthersdaughterlong8149]

My bean's which I got from you haven't grown. I've planted 3 bean's at a time 3 time's. Could they be bad?

[@CaliKim29]

Hi Esther, beans germinate best in 70-80 degrees. If it's too cold, they won't germinate, are very slow to germinate, and to grow. If they are planted in soil that is too wet from excessive rain or overwatering, they could have possibly rotted in the soil and not germinated. However, we do stand behind our products and pride ourselves on our customer service, please email me at calikim@calikimgardenandhome and I"ll be happy to send out new bean seeds to you! Thanks for watching!

[@esthersdaughterlong8149]

​@@CaliKim29The problem could be because of over 90 ° weather here in Florida. Thank you Kim.

[@CaliKim29]

Yes, Heat is a huge factor; that very well could be!!! ❤️

[@shantalkeziaaguarobles3265]

someone is afraid of bumblebees.. 😁

[@CaliKim29]

CG: They're just so big and that buzzing...I'm trying tho!!! : )

[@GreenthumbFL]

I have two beehives in my garden… I love bugs lol

[@cocobrwngl]

Cool points are awarded for the smooth camera skills as you made an exit though. I get it. I would have dropped the camera. Sometimes the hummingbirds startle me when they come close and i don't see them first. I am thinking it is a huge bee, so I jump and scare it too. I planted a few scarlet runners for the first-time last year, but I didn't eat them. I thought they may not taste good because the pods look very textured. I will give them a try this time around.

[@CaliKim29]

CameraGuy says thank you very much, he tried to hang in there for as long as could....
