    Not likely. They can tolerate some root damage, as long as this wasn't right next to the beanstalk. This would cause quite a problem. Otherwise, they should recover just fine.

    This article will give you more information on growing beans:

    Unfortunately, your photo did not come through. Their production will be directly related to proper care. Beans can be spindly, but if they are not in full sun, are overcrowded, or in hot areas, then they can stretch more and become unproductive.

    In the meantime, this article will help you to care for bean plants:

    It is in the bean family. Since many wild beans and peas are quite toxic, I would only consume what you have planted. There is quite a risk to consuming wild legumes, since it will be hard to tell them apart.

    For a proper identification, take a sample of the entire plant, including roots if possible, to your local agricultural extension service. They can help with an ID.

    A jar is, simply, too small of a container to support their growth. They will need quite a bit more room in order to survive for very long after germination.

    This article will help you to grow them:

    Those are Bird's Nest fungi! That is a beneficial soil friend. They break down organic matter, very quickly, releasing it to your plants.

    You don't mention whether there are new flowers that don't produce, or if the plant stops producing entirely. Also, each plant is programmed to produce a certain number of beans, so if you've harvested a healthy crop, that may be all you're going to get from that plant.
    If you scroll down on this link a bit to our Gardening Know How articles, you'll see a series of pieces about bean plants - maybe these will help you identify the problem: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/search?q=bean%20plants%20not%20producing
