Default "Othello" pinto beans

Harvested a lot of my Othello pinto beans this morning. Have over 5 lbs. of shelled beans. Will have some tonight for dinner and dry the rest for a later time. Plants are prolific and hardly any disease issues. Doesn't seem to mind our humid/warm climate for end of April.

That's a nice haul! I just can't successfully get beans to the dry stage except for Cherokee Trail Of Tears and field peas. Anything else seems to get munched in the pod by bean beetle larvae or get moldy in the pod. Bush green beans and Red Noodle yard longs are the worst offenders.
