Planting Instructions: Soil Preparation: Remove weeds, large rocks, & litter from the planting area. Till the soil 8-10 inches deep & rake several times to break up large clods. It is best to do this when the soil is dry enough to not stick to garden tools. Loosening the soil will help the plant establish strong roots. Planting: in the Spring, plant beans after all danger of frost has passed. in the Fall, plant beans 10 to 12 weeks before the first expected frost. For large plots, use ¼ to ½ pound of seed for each 100 feet of row of green beans. Plant bush beans 1 inch deep & 1 to 2 inches apart in the rows that are 2½ to 3 feet apart. Planting in moist soil is best for seeds to germinate & emerge quickly. After the beans have sprouted, thin the plants to 3-4 inches apart. Planting Depth: 1 inch Within-Row Spacing: 1-2 inches, thin to 3-4 inches Between-Row Spacing: 2 1/2-3 feet Care During the Season: Watering: Water the plants about once a week in dry weather.

When hoeing & pulling weeds, try not to dig too deep to prevent the plant's roots from damage. Fertilizing: As the plants begin to flower & set beans, you may optionally apply fertilizer to help plants produce more beans. Apply by scattering between the rows about 1/2 cup of fertilizer for every 10 feet of
