#CompanionPlanting with #Beans

by Barbara Pleasant, 26 April 2018

"Fast to mature and easy to grow, beans have several characteristics that make them good partners for other vegetables. They tolerate partial shade, and most beans have tiny hooked hairs on their leaves that entrap #aphids and other small insects. Beans can fix nitrogen taken from the air, so they make fewer demands on the soil's nutrient supply compared to other vegetables. Beans also deter weeds with their dense growth both above and below the ground.

How you use beans as companion plants depends on what you hope to accomplish. High-rise walls of pole beans can be used to provide shade for neighbors that suffer in strong summer sun, while low-growing bush beans can be used as weed-suppressing ground covers between rows of potatoes.

Whether they grow on vines or bushes, you will need good access to beans that are harvested as green or snap beans, which need to be picked every other day when the crop is ready. Dry beans, which are left on the plants until the pods dry to brown, can simply be left to grow, so they are a great option for Native American-inspired Three Sisters plantings comprised of corn, beans, and long-vined winter squash or pumpkins."

🧵 If you listened to my micro-macro-amplifyer you could hear a "roaaarrr!" against #aphids on my rose. In German, #ladybird larvae are called Blattlauslöwen, #aphid lions.

Because of the warm winter and the terrible dryness, we have myriads of aphids. And because of farmers using more pesticides, we have less #insects and insect eating #birds. So more aphids*. Everything is #interconnected. Read ALT!

Convergent lady beetle (Hippodamia convergens) on one of my pea trellises. Adults can consume up to 100 aphids per day according to some sources. Also: adorable and bring good luck! #marienkäfer #glückskäfer #beetles #insects #macro #peas #garden #ipm #aphids #pisum #coccinellidae

The #Norwaymaple #Acer #platanoides is a native #tree of (Central) #Europe that spread northward after the last #IceAge along with mixed oak forests and is still commonly found in such #treecommunities today. Like all #trees, it offers #habitats for numerous organisms, forming complex macro#ecosystems, e.g., the #leaves, where #aphids feed, while the #ant #Formica #fusca is collecting their excretions (honeydew) as food.

Willa has moved!! :verifiedtrans: :verifiedbi: :verifiedsappho: @[email protected] · 2024-08-29 · 14:25 UTC

Oleander aphids (𝘈𝘱𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘪) on swamp milkweed (𝘈𝘴𝘤𝘭𝘦𝘱𝘪𝘢𝘴 𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘢), from July 2022.

Interestingly, these little critters are all female; no males are found in the wild. They reproduce by parthenogenesis.

These are what #HelleboreAphids - #MacrosiphumHellebori - look like.

This specific #GardenPest is whitish-green & only attacks #hellebores. Hellebore #aphids are a nasty garden pest because it's a vector for the virus #HelleboreNetNecrosis #virus #HeNNV - a pathogen that spreads #BlackDeath quickly, if left untreated.

Anyone know whether this seven-spotted lady beetle has a fungal infection? One of the anterolateral spots on the pronotum is yellowed and seems to be surrounded by lesions. Or is it just ooze from a past victim? #fungus #fungi #disease #LadyBeetle #LadyBug #coccinellidae #beetle #coleoptera #aphids #insect #entomology #nature
