I had a very poor year in the bean department this year. The only ones I picked were some DFBs in a planter and the Hunter beans in a pot in the GH, sown late as a final fling.
My stomach tells me to grow lots to eat and forget about saving seed, unless its for dry beans to eat.
My heart tells me I should try to grow the unusual ones to share the seeds - then my head jumps in and tells me that the seeds are only unusual to me and there are probably lots of other people with these seeds (like the HSL ones).
The Moneyless Chicken thinks that I should grow to eat and to save a few seeds to grow next year. Maybe several CFBs and one runner and one or two specifically for drying. Make an early start with dwarf beans in pots in the GH with climbers to follow on outdoors.
Its starting to feel like a plan.

Use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without.
