Growing guide

Sowing

Plant seed outdoors in late spring after the ground has warmed. Do not rush planting of beans as a few cold, wet days at planting time may rot seed. Plant seeds 1½ inches apart in rows 2½ feet apart. Cover seeds with 1 inch of fine soil, well pressed down. Water well at planting time and keep moderately moist after seedlings emerge.

Thinning

When plants are 2 to 3 inches tall, thin to 3 inches apart.

Germination

6 to 10 days depending on soil and temperature conditions.

Remarks

For best crop, keep free of weeds. Do not hoe when wet. For highest quality and yield, pick pods when young (about 4 to 5 inches long). For continuous crop, make successive plantings every 2 to 3 weeks until mid-summer.
