Sow Garden Bush Tendergreen Improved Bean seeds when the soil is warm and all danger of frost is past. Plant 2 seeds every 4". Soaking seeds overnight before planting will speed germination. Thin to 1 plant every 4" when the plants have 4 leaves. Pick early and often to encourage production. Sow every 2 weeks until 8 weeks before fall frost.
Planting Depth: 1-1.5"
Seed Spacing: Sow Garden Bush Tendergreen Improved Bean seeds roughly 4" apart in rows, keeping rows approximately 20" 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.
