The search is over I found some. Annette

Most of the beans were shellies or at least were eaten when the pods were full of mature seeds so I will put the report here again. 5/20/12 started some beans in peat pots. 5/31 put beans on to soak and planted them all out on 6/2. After a nice May, June was unseasonably cold and wet. 7/5 seasonal daytime temperatures started. Nights were below normal most of the summer. Most of September had above average days but nights continued unusually cold with a 32F frost on 9/12! The first week of October there were several unusually cold nights at 29-30F but many of the beans continued to produce. Even the 27F frost on 10/22 did not totally end the bean season. Bush beans: Candy, shelly. They are very late and have runners. Very large and dense aggressive bushes. 10/10 some of these are maturing. Very nice large and plump shellies, red on cream maturing to red on pink. Some are just over an inch long. They are too late for here. Clem and Sarah's Big Bean, shelly. Most of them died in the cold wet June. 9/8 some pods are turning yellow. Clem's Purple, a single plant found in the Clem and Sarah's Big Bean patch in 2011. 9/8 some are turning yellow. 9/15 some drying out. Shellies are up to one inch long and are all purple, all white, purple speckles on white or white streaks on purple. Very attractive mix and they have good flavor and texture. The plants did far better than the white version in the cold wet June. Crow River Black, shelly. 9/8 some are turning yellow. 9/15 some drying out. Shellies have good flavor but firm texture. 9/30/12 finished the harvest. 2 gallons of dry pods plus shellies. Large plants with up to 44 pods on a plant.

DW loves them. 9/30 a few pods are becoming flexible. 10/7 the hulls develop maroon streaks and splotches as seeds mature. They are very slow to dry but a few pods are starting to dry finally. 10/20 there are still lots of good plump snaps and I picked the drier ones for seed. 10/25 the drying pods are still fine snaps, fat with black seeds. This is a winner.

I told myself I was going to go 100% organic this year....until this crud started showing up. It just seemed to come out of nowhere like you said and started spreading pretty rapidly. I finally broke down and sprayed them with Ortho Garden Disease Control several days ago which put a halt to the spread. With rain on the way, I'm sure I'll be spraying again soon. My tomatoes look so good this year with what should be very good yields - I just couldn't sit by and watch them deteriorate. I'm growing Anna Russian, Better Boy, Brandywine, Brandywine (Sudduth Strain), Cherokee Purple, Gardener's Delight, Marianna's Peace, Opalka, Sioux, and Stump of the World. All are affected with Stump of the World getting it the worst, but the spray has helped tremendously, and everything is growing without any apparent adverse impact.

I love this recipe - it's a bit of work, but if you are not a big fan of store bought mayonnaise and you do like something different, try this. It is spectacular! Old Fashioned Potato Salad: 3 lbs (10) unpared, medium potatoes, well scrubbed 1 1/2 tsp salt Boiling Water Cook Potatoes until fork tender, not mushy. Slice (with peel on). Marinade: 1 1/2 tsp salt 1 tsp dry mustard 1/8 tsp pepper Dash Cayenne 1/4 cup cider vinegar 1/2 cup salad oil 1/2 cup green onion chopped. Pour marinade over still-warm, cooked potatoes. Toss gently to coast well, refrigerate covered at least 2 hours. Boiled Dressing: 1 tbsp flour 2 tbsp sugar 1 tsp salt 1 1/4 cups milk 3 egg yolks slightly beaten 1/4 cup cider vinegar 1 tbsp prepared mustard 2 tbsp butter Stir flour with sugar and salt. With wire whisk, gradually stir in milk. Cook, stirring over medium heat until mixture starts to boil. Boil 1 minute, remove from heat. Gradually stir the hot mixture, a little at a time into the beaten egg yolks. Pour back into saucepan. Add vinegar & mustard. Cook, stirring constantly until mixture starts to boil. Remove from heat and stir in butter. Cool, then refrigerate. One hour before serving, add celery, radish, hard-cooked eggs and dressing to potatoes. Refrigerate until serving time. Bon Appetit!
