Planting Details
- Depth: Plant seeds 1-1.5 inches deep in loose, well-draining soil.
- Spacing: Space seeds 2-3 inches apart, and leave 18-24 inches between rows to allow for proper air circulation and plant growth.
- Light: Beans prefer full sun, requiring 6-8 hours of sunlight daily to grow and produce a strong harvest.
Watering and Care
- Water Needs: Keep the soil evenly moist, especially during germination. Once established, water deeply but infrequently to encourage strong root development.
- Fertilizer: Beans are nitrogen-fixers and generally do not require heavy fertilization. However, adding compost or organic matter before planting can support healthy growth.
- Weeding: Regularly remove weeds to reduce competition for nutrients, taking care not to damage the plant’s shallow root system.
- Mulching: Applying mulch around the plants will help retain moisture, regulate soil temperature, and suppress weed growth.
