Bean blitzed

Beans are usually planted directly in the garden, and now I know why. They're agressive. The first bean sprouts came in three days ago, and it's now 3" tall. I had them in planting trays of 1" square by 2" deep and by this morning they were growing roots outside the biodegradable trays. That just wasn't going to work, so I repotted most of them. Here's a picture of the results.

By comparison, the tomatoes that came in a day earlier are only about an inch tall. Once they get established, I expect to be giving away some of the beans, and probably some of the tomatoes. Before they start producing fruit.

The peppers should start coming in next week.
