FrugalGramma said:Those cherry tomatoes are a constant in my mouth all day, and even all night like tonight when I can't sleep! I am picking green beans, but have never grown them before and wonder if they are supposed to be producing so stinking high on the vine? They are on 8' poles and have overgrown that height. I have to get on a step stool to pick and I'm not too steady. I can just read it now: "woman found dead entwined in a mass of green bean vines and poles. Jaws of life were used to extract her."

Some of the varieties of pole beans do tend to get very high if you let them. All of them want to reach for the sky. And yes, many beans form as high as they can!!
