Growing guide

From seed to harvest

Put up supports first

Trellis, poles or netting before sowing.

Sow in warm soil

Above 60°F, 1" deep and 3" apart, or 4–6 seeds per pole.

Rotate and clean up

Three-year rotation; compost or plow in old vines.

Pick often

Regular picking keeps pods coming; store at 40°F.

Growing Information

Scientific name

Vigna unguiculata

Support

Pole beans climb, so give them a trellis, poles or mesh netting.

Days to maturity

Counted from direct sowing.

Direct sowing

Hold off until the soil has warmed past 60°F (16°C). Set seed 1" deep with about 3" between seeds and 4' between rows, or ring each pole with 4–6 seeds. Treating seed with a rhizobium inoculant may boost the crop.

Seeding rate

Roughly 50 seeds plant 12 ft. of row (10 poles), 250 plant 50 ft. (40 poles), 500 plant 100 ft. (80 poles) and 1,000 plant 200 ft. (160 poles).

Insect pests

If Mexican bean beetle shows up, an approved product (pyrethrin or azadirachtin, for example) keeps it in check.

Disease

In fall, plow under or compost old bean vines so disease organisms break down quickly. Wider rows that let leaves and soil dry help against white mold (Sclerotinia). Rotate on a 3-year cycle, ideally following with corn or small grains.

Harvest

Pick often to keep new pods setting.

Storage

Fresh pods keep 7–10 days when held cold, near 40°F (5°C), with humidity around 90%.

Packet

50 seeds.

Seeds per lb.

About 2,400 on average.
