Growing Tips

Prepare the planting bed by using a garden fork or lightly till ground to loosen the soil. Plant when soil temperature is around 60F. Mix in a 1-inch layer of mature compost. Plant seeds 1 inch deep and 2 to 4 inches apart. Thin beans to 6 inches apart. Put trelis on north side of garden for beans to climb so it does not shade other plants that need full sun. Harvest begins once beans are green and swollen. Should be picked every 3-5 days to avoid beans getting over-ripe and woody.Certified
