Oooo black beans! Do you have to do anything with these before using them? I presume these are the same that you buy canned or dried? (I've never seen them available as seed and these are prob my favourite bean as I do a lot of Mexican style food. (Anything with chili is fine by me)Pulled up half a bed of carrots yesterday 3.5kgs. Dehydrated them this time except small ones froze those. Already have about 5 kgs frozen.

My gherkins are flowering but nothing happening, yet near them the capsicum are really doing well except for something chewing round holes in them and laying lots of black eggs.It's been a strange year for curcurbits, apart from zucchinis. Cucumber hasn't been too bad, but doesn't flower as much in the really hot weather. Pumpkin, rockmelon, and watermelon have grown plenty of vines, but little flowering. Apart from a couple of small butternuts and one Jack Be Little, there are only 2 rockmelons forming at this stage.
