Hi MT, OH Says......! Fill the loo rolls with compost and then stand them all in a tray upright. Push one bean in each tube and by the time they 'sprout' they will reach the light. He tells me you can't sow them until late April /May as they are frost tender. I do the flower stuff and leave all the veg to him. I just noticed that we were suddenly collecting loo roll tubes....hence the 'tips' for gardeners!! Interesting that you freeze without blanching.I might try it this year as blanching is such a hassle.!!
