Beans beans beans

Here are the bean pictures I took yesterday (current count: 50). Within each 4 inch pot, I planted 4 bean seeds (1 in each corner). Now, keep in mind that I haven't planted a bean seed since kindergarten or first grade. I was the kid that always killed mine with kindness, so bean plants and I.. well, we haven't gotten along so well. Some 30+ years later, I'm trying again. This time, in hopes of 1) keeping the bean plants alive (they look pretty happy, yes?) and 2) actually getting some beans to eat. :)

Also below are my tomato seedlings - Bloody Butchers on the left (from 2003 seeds, thank you very much) and Odoriko's on the right. Yes, they are squished and yes, they need transplanting. For lack of anything to transplant them into, it hasn't been done. However, this morning I stopped at the grocery store and picked up 30 plastic cups in which to transplant my tomato seeds. I'm hoping they recover and grow enough in the next week to bring them into work and give them away for Earth Day. Happy Gardening!!
