Instructions

Sow seeds when the soil is warm and all danger of frost is past. Plant 2 seeds every 4 inches. Soaking seeds overnight before planting will speed germination. Thin to 1 plant every 4 inches when the plants have 4 leaves. Pick early and often to encourage production. Sow every 2 weeks until 8 weeks before fall frost.

Seed Spacing: Sow Cherokee Wax Bean seeds roughly 20"/3" apart in rows.

Nutrient Care Instructions: Apply SUPERthrive once per week. Soak in solution of 1/4 tsp per gal for 15 min. or longer depending on size and type.

Suggestions

Avoid working around beans when wet; this may spread diseases. When weeding, hoe gently because beans are shallow-rooted. Mulch plants only after thinning.

Reviews

FUN

"it was very fresh and grew into a plant would recommend. The packaging was good and it was very sustainable. also there were many different ones to choose from so they had a good variety."

— Lauren (5/5)

Great growing process

"I was lucky enough to sample the Ferry-Morse was bean. Growing process was fairly easy. Typical growing process, easy to do and packaged well. And when the beans came the full maturity they were delicious"

— Jen (4/5)

Would purchase again.

"Pictures were taken at 1 week, 3 weeks and 7 weeks. The seeds grew well and I was impressed. The holes in the leaves were not the fault of the brand as other plants in my garden also had them. I was impressed with the growth of the seeds and I would buy this brand again. I think the quality was on par with what I look for in my garden seeds each year."

— Jessicaa36 (5/5)

Yummy & easy to grow

"We grew these green beans and they made a really yummy side for dinner! They grow pretty tall but were very tasty! I love that they are organic, makes all the difference!"

— Vanessas509 (5/5)

Seeds you can count on

"I started these late and the weather hasnâ€™t been great here in Ohio. So Even though I germinated them first which was easy to do. The sun scorched them, when we were away on vacation. So no fault of the beans but operator error on my part, my neighbors are older so I didnâ€™t want them to try to water my plants. I love Ferry Morse seeds and Iâ€™ve never had a problem germinating them and growing plants from their seeds."

— Wendy A. (5/5)

Ferry-Morse Wax Bean Seeds

"I received a complimentary packet of Wax Bean seeds from Influenster and Ferry-Morse in return for my honest opinion. I am an avid gardener and selected the wax beans because of the short growing time, they grow well here, and I would have plenty of beans for Three Bean Salad later on. First, I had to take some time getting my garden area ready for planting, but it was taking longer than expected. I had a lot weeds to pull, dead and low-hanging branches to prune out of my tree, etc. I ultimately decided to plant the seeds in pots and transplant them later. #Complimentary #GotItForFree"

— Kristinp54 (4/5)
