Boise Gardener's "Infinite Bean" Experiment Yields Surprising Second Harvest and Unique Varieties
A local gardener from Boise, Idaho, has shared a fascinating experiment demonstrating an unexpected second harvest from dry bean plants. The gardener, known as Abbi from 'making garden magic', initially harvested a flush of dry bean pods. Instead of discarding the plants, she decided to cut them back to observe if new growth would emerge. To her delight, the plants not only produced new foliage but also a second flush of pods. This discovery suggests a potential method for extending the yield of certain bean varieties. The video also highlights a particularly striking bean variety named "Wolverine's Orca." Upon opening the dried pods, the gardener revealed individual beans with distinct black and white patterns, reminiscent of pandas or orcas. This unique appearance has garnered attention from viewers, adding an aesthetic dimension to the practical gardening tip. The experiment offers an interesting insight for home gardeners looking to maximize their harvests and explore unusual plant varieties.
