Yo Frank,
If you have planted them on a mound then they are in the ideal place for the
cold night air to just breeze through them and suck the moisture out..especially this time
of the year..and they die..have the same problem over here with runner beans and the
like. They should be covered at night to keep them out of the wind...just the smallest
breeze will kill them off.

> Two of my plants leaves turned a light tan color and died. They appear to have dried
out. Did I not harden them properly of did I do something else. My prep work was fairly
extensive as far as the mound is concerned. I have yet to really fertilize and now I a
little perplexed about what is happening.
