Gardener’s Notes: Beans need warm weather and fertile, well-drained soil. Plant in late spring after temperatures reach 70F. Form a tripod with three 6-8FT poles. Sow 4-6 seeds around each pole. Thin to 3 or 4 plants per pole. To plant in rows, space seeds every 2 inches, support vines. Keep soil moist. Harvest pods when 8-9 inches long, before seeds inside develop. Pick ripe pods daily to keep plants productive.
