DESCRIPTION
Growing Strike Bush Bean Garden Seeds
Growing Directions:
Sow bean seeds into well drained and warm soil about an inch below the surface. Space the plants around four inches away from one another, and in rows two feet apart. Make sure that there is good air circulation around the area that the bush is planted, which will help prevent disease. Plants need full sun and more importantly, lots of water. Water close to the root to make sure not to cause fungus and disease on the plant leaves. Make sure not to leave the mature beans on the plant, because this will slow production. Harvest the pods individually when they can snap off of the plant. The pods will be ready to harvest frequently, so check on them each day and pick them before the seeds inside have grown too large.
Facts:
These beans are perfect for cooking, as they are smooth and stringless with a refreshing crisp taste and a juicy crunch.
