How to grow

Beans are fast growing annuals should be direct sown or planted out after all risk of frost has passed. Pick daily for highest yields. Well drained, pH neutral to alkaline soil is ideal, as is the addition of potassium and blood and bone at planting. Mulch around your beans thoroughly as they are shallow rooted and are easily damaged with close cultivation.
