Oh, that’s excellent! I planted some carrots in front of my beans, figuring they would be harvested before the beans got too big. It’s good to see that someone else has done this as well. :-)

My plan is to let the beans grow and be harvested, while the carrots grow through the season. These beans are “supposed” to be ready to harvest in May. I plan to just cut off the vines at the ground when they are through, and let the nitrogen in the roots feed the carrots.
