Bean problems

Some of the beans are having problems.  There's definite discoloration in the leaves.  It's very possible that it's due to all the rain we've had lately, just as the tomatoes are suffering.  It could also be a nutrient deficiency.  I need to read about this.


I've also noticed that there's a distinct lack of flowers on both the scarlet runners and the pole beans.  It's easy to see where the flowers should be, but aren't.


I've found a lot of flowers on the ground and on the Adirondack chair.  Considering we have had a fair amount of tree limbs down in the area, my guess is that this is from the wind and rain.  There are also darker-colored flowers on the ground next to the chair indicating that this has happened on multiple occasions.

What I don't know is if this will have any long-term effect on bean development.
