Planting Instruction:
- Sow seeds when the soil is warm and all danger of frost is past. Pick early and often to encourage production. Sow every 2 weeks until 8 weeks before fall frost.
- Sow seeds 2.5 cm (1″) deep and 10 cm (4″) apart. Plants should be spaced 15 cm (6″) apart with rows spaced 60 cm (24″) apart.
Avoid working around beans when wet; this may spread diseases. When weeding, hoe gently because beans are shallow-rooted. Mulch plants only after thinning.
