I’m planting beans a bit late

Today, 17.05.2025 upon returning to the farm house after morning slashing and weeding, I stumble on some been seeds in a tin which was inside a carton that I rarely open. I have decided that now that there’s still plenty of rain, I will plant them. Once they are about two weeks old, I will weed them, then add compost manure before mulching them well. I am sure the rains will have reduced within that time but the mulch will keep the soil moist, so the beans will survive. This is just a trial. I hope to share progress, attaching photos every now and then.
