Hey man, what are you going to do with those beans when they start to climbing all over everything? Or are they a non-climbing variety? Are they possibly bush beans?

Hi All
I opened my worm filter today and scratched to check how the worms are doing.
1000…..of mossy’s……
I have the filter covered with shade cloth and then a layer of lace curtains to keep the mossy’s….. Inside and then other shade cloth layer…keep’s them all inside and still air moving through the filter
Most of the worms are at the bottom and happy
I did this mod today...
I now have water running into the system on all four sides
I want to get rid of dead spots
I have the water flowing and in contact with oxygen on all sides

The peppers in the system are reaching roof height....good
I am very happy with starting to make and add the lye for potassium...my peppers 100% better
The plant in total looks better......
I started added 4-5 litres of my home brew lye per day for a few days and then stopped...
always keeping check on ph and......
The peppers planted in 5-8mm gravel and in shade net bag...looking good
and the anchorage seem to be good
