Growing Instructions:

Direct sow after last frost.

Plant spacing: 4” to 6” apart

Row spacing: 15” to 18” apart

Beans fix their own nitrogen so fertilizer should not be too rich or there will be too much foliage at the expense of pods. A well-balanced, well-cured compost and a sprinkle of wood-ash should be adequate. Make sure soil pH is between 5.8 and 7.0.

Harvest Instructions:

Harvest as snap beans when pods are tender before beans develop.
