Hello all,
I have given up the fight for my birds to leave my spider plants(grass) alone. I want to make an easily managed greens pot to hang next to my birds. I've had luck sprouting split green peas but I'm looking for a way to provide for variety. Beans have always done well for me. I've seen that the 15 bean soup is safe when washed and cooked but what about the plants? If I have success growing these are those plants safe?
I'm wanting to have the actual plants grow and just toss new beans and seeds in when the greenery gets low. Thoughts?
Varieties of beans according to label:
Northern
Pinto
Large Lima
Yelloweye
Garbanzo
Baby Lima
Green split peas
Kidney
Cranberry
Small white
Pink
Small red
Yellow split peas
Lentils
Navy
White Kidney
Black
Since many of the beans are climbing plants I think putting down a grate for them to climb through will keep the birds out of the dirt but allow them to play with/eat.
