Most will recommend only placing your beans 1/4 inch deep. I made the mistake of planting my seeds too deep, and had to remove about an inch of dirt from each pot. My plants were very stunted in the beginning, and are just now recovering fully, so that shows you the difference depth can make.
Ok, this is stupid. I just watered the rapid rooters, and they perked up within 20 minutes. Weird.

I'll tried to get pictures but my camera is screwed. I guess I'll be buying a new one tomorrow. Excuse for a new toy. :jointsmile:
