I built a new bed this year and started some beans, tomatoes, and zucchini from seed. The beans were in blast off mode in the starter pots before I planted them, literally climbing my windows. The day I planted them in the bed, however, they started struggling and don’t seem to be recovering. I am at a loss what is going on here and hoping one of you kind folks can help me. Photographed is one of the leaves that seemes to just be curling up and dying. Please help!
I agree this is a watering issue, but I don't think its leaf rot. I think the beans were root bound before outplanting, and that because this is a new bed, probably a clay layer formed (because it had not been significantly watered or grown in before), and the roots are not getting the access to water they need, or are the able to penetrate the clay layer, because they were root bound.
So even if they are watering, the plants might only have access to the top 5-10cm of soil.
