Along a trellis about 6' tall, sow a seed every 4" when the soil is warm. Soaking seeds overnight before planting will speed germination. Thin to one plant every 8" when plants have 4 leaves. Pick when these bean pods are nearly mature, but beans are not fully developed and pods are still crisp.

Suggestions

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