Growing Information:

  • Maturity: Matures in 60-70 days from sowing.
  • Season: Warm season, requires full sun.
  • Timing: Direct sow from late spring to early summer during a warm, dry spell. Soil must be warm – if it is not warm enough, seeds may rot. Optimal soil temperature: 21-32°C (70-90°F).
  • Starting: Sow seeds 7-10cm (3-4") apart and 3.5cm (1½") deep at the base of a support. Seeds sprout in 8-16 days.

Maintenance:

  • Ideal pH: 6.0-6.5. Well-drained, warm soil in full sun is best.
  • Fertilization: Use 1 cup of complete organic fertilizer for every 3m (10') of row. Avoid excessive nitrogen to prevent poor pod set and delayed maturity.
  • Disease Prevention: Thin plants to increase air circulation and avoid touching wet leaves.

Harvest and Use:

  • Frequent Harvesting: Pick beans regularly to keep the plant producing. The smaller the bean, the more tender they are.
  • Storage: Usual seed life is 3 years. In optimal conditions, at least 75% of seeds should germinate.

Companion Planting:

  • Nitrogen Fixation: Beans enrich the soil with nitrogen.
  • Compatible Plants: Plant with beets, Brassicas, carrots, celery, chard, corn, cucumber, eggplant, peas, potatoes, radish, and strawberries.
