Something is destroying my beans and someone said it could be cut worms. What can I do please, to stop them?

Hi gratlog try this : Organic : Weed control:

Also try slipping a plastic drink bottle or plastic cup disposable ones over the plants (with the bottom cut out) leaving at least 6cms above the ground.

That should fix them up ...Cheers. MM.

g'day gratlog,

yes use 2 litre or even 1.25 litre soft drink bottle (plastic) carefully cut the top off where the neck joins the bottle body and do the same with the bottom, with 2 litre bottle you maye then be able to cut that in 1/2 to get 2. slip these over the seedlings just pushed into the ground and leave there until the seedling are well developed, then remove the sleeve if you wish.
