I had already determined that next year I would be starting them indoors but now I am considering whether I should use the paper pots or just do a soil block planting.

As soon as the seed starts sending out a root I plant it. Of course this method has the same problem only worse that yours does. Don't wait too long.

I wonder what I'm doing wrong.<br /><br />This year, I planted most of my beans in single rows and only when the weather was hot (which was late May).
