Green bean plant question

[granmahen]

I'm having the same problem with my bush beans. I know tomatoes won't set fruit when its too hot at night, might beans have the same problem. I'm hoping for lots of veggies in sept. when nights cool off again.

I forgot to add that I had lots of Zennias volunteer up in the garden this year. I had the garden lined with them last year. they attract the butterflies and bees. I went out this afternoon and did see a few beans coming on

I am not getting a lot of cukes either but have lots of blooms. I will be patient here

I always plant the pole bean variety but I had SOOOO many green beans last year that I didn't need any this year. Instead I planted a few cucmbers on that row so they could climb the fence and good gosh I am picking 10 gallons of cucumbers everyday. Needless to say, all the animals are LOVING the fresh cucumbers. My whole garden has done great this year for some reason. Maybe it is the crazy weather, we set record lows for July last week. It seems like the butterbeans are taking forever, but I am NOT complaining about them because I usually kill them and don't get squat LOL!

Well, I had a whole colander full of roma tomatoes and a couple yellow full size tomatoes that I just finished making up...only got 2 quarts and one pint and they are now in the water bath for one hour 25 min. per Ball Book. Kind of disappointing to have that many tomatoes and only yield that many jars. LOL But at least, they aren't going to ruin!! I will look forward to having them this winter. Now waiting on enough cukes to make some pickles.

I wish. We had at least a dozen flowers and one week later the whole plant
shriveled up and died. I was so disappointed. I was so excited when it bloomed and then my hopes were crushed.
