    Hello!!

    PLEASE HELP!!:help:

    I have opened my coldframe, & have found that a snail has got in & has eaten all the leaves off my runner bean plants!! They have only just come through!! The pesky snail has eaten all the leaves & have left just the stalks!!

    Will my runners beans survive, or will I have to sow more?

    Kind Regards

    Claire

    Hi BigBird. If the growing tip is still there, it SHOULD be ok. Otherwise, it's sowing time again ! :) Cheers...freddy.
