    Soil and Nutrient Requirements: Beans require soils with average fertility. Choose well-drained, warm soils.

    Germination: 7 - 14 days at 22ºC. Temperatures below 15ºC will result in seed-rot.
    Outdoors: Direct-seed once all risk of frost has passed. Sow successive plantings every 2 - 3 weeks to ensure a continual harvest.
    Planting Depth: 1”.
    Spacing: Sow seeds 2 - 3'' apart in rows 15 - 24” apart. Thin to 4 - 6” once the first true set of leaves has developed.

    Plants to Avoid: All members of the allium family (onions, leeks, garlic, scallions) and Kohlrabi inhibit growth in beans. Sunflowers will compete for light.

    Pest/Disease Issues: Aphids can be washed off plants with a hard stream of water. 

    Harvesting: Harvest early and often to increase yields. Remove oversized beans to maintain pod production.

    Suitability for Indoors: Not suited for indoors.
