I pulled mine up today after getting over 15 gallons off of that one 35ft row. My refrigerator is too full of beans and I have given them away like crazy and neither my wife nor I do any canning anymore. This may have been my best year ever with them and I could have left them for a few more weeks but spider mites were starting to show up in good numbers on them and I have tomatoes on each side of them. They were almost pest free this year. Had a few aphids which the ladybugs got rid of and kept off. I wish they had done the same for my tomatoes. I will try to grow a few in the fall; but that is always a chancy proposition due to the heat and the whiteflies.
