Might they be turning black before purple like some peppers do? I've been looking at them closer, and they might be turning purple. I think it's just because the "black" one is outside of the AeroGarden's light and in the shade, so it looked black to me.

Added 12ml of nutes. The "black" (purple) pods that I saw are starting to grow in size and become full beans.

Good thing you did not end this one.

Added 6ml of nutes. I also removed a branch that was only being held up by my Zinna's bottle - which made it very inconvenient to add water since I would have to move the bottle and hold the branch up the entire time.
There were six immature pods on the end of the branch, but they're edible.

Cleaned this up to let the plant focus more on the beans. I also removed as many of the immature beans as I could, since I'd prefer to finish this grow sooner rather than later.

The beans were too heavy. I think it's still alive?

The leaves look good. It might just need staking.

I took the woefully inaccurate PH meter I got at some point and found a use for it.

Ended this today! I looked into it further and the beans were ready for harvest, unless I wanted to have them fully mature and use them as a dry bean. Here's my self-survey: Plant Grown: Purple Dove Bush Bean Grow Method: AeroGarden Bounty Time to Germinate: 5 days Time to First Harvest: 50 days (since germination) Time to Last Harvest: 62 days (since germination) Plant Spacing: 1 per Bounty (11% usage) Final Height: 15 inches Would I grow these again? I don't think so. Despite being a bush bean, they would have done better with a trellis. I might try some outdoors. Lessons Learned: I don't like growing different plants in the same AeroGarden, even as similar as soybeans and beans are.
