  1. 1 bean per pole seems overoptimistic, if you sow direct auto-attribute upcoming shoots to slugs, and go with 5-6 per pole, cutting out stuff later if you're getting fed up with harvesting all them many beans is easy, easier in fact than the dissappintments of having gaps in your wigman canopy!

  2. I wonder where you are on the planet? Climbing beans like these runners are not hardy, and generally get sown 2 or more per cane in late spring (earlier if started singly in pots to plant out as young plants) to avoid frosts. For me, that's definitely not October. I have only just taken down this year's canes. The use of pots also helps excessive losses due to slugs and snails.
