    Bush beans are a thing? Soybeans don't climb either, and it's the most common bean grown in the US.

    oh I've only grown vine beans. The ones I have that were originally smuggled when all the invasive species were brought in grow easily 10+ feet high and any I can't reach are left to dry on the vine at the end of the season and the poles are toppled to grab them

    We have neighbors with tons of hemp bales mouldering in the field because the processors won't take them because they don't have anywhere to sell them to. Maybe it's incompetence, or maybe the hemp hype isn't all it's cracked up to be. There aren't a lot of people willing to grow it anymore.
