Sowing instructions:



Sow seed directly in late spring after weather has warmed and all danger of frost has passed. Plant 4 to 6 seeds per pole in hills. Plant seeds in hills or rows about 3 feet apart. Germination results in 5-10 days. They can be planted from seed as soon as the soil is warm, day temperatures around 60 degrees F in full sun and loose, well drained soil.



To increase harvest, bush beans can be planted every two weeks. If you need to add nitrogen, 1 pound per 100 square feet is plenty. You do not need to soak beans prior to planting.



Plant Care: For the biggest yields grow plants in raised composted beds. Water regularly.



Growing Tips:

Keep plants well watered

Keep picked on a regular basis to encourage production
