Type: Bush Bean
Matures in: 54 days
Description:
This popular yellow bean produces abundant yields of round, stringless pods on bush-type plants. Pods are about 6 inches long, bright golden yellow, slightly curved and slender.
SOWING:
Plant seed outdoors in late spring after the ground has warmed. Do not rush planting of beans as a few cold, wet days at planting time may rot seed. Plant seeds 1½ inches apart in rows 2½ to 3 feet apart. Cover seeds with 1½ inches of soil, well pressed down.
THINNING:
When plants are 2 to 3 inches tall, thin to 3 inches apart.
GERMINATION:
Germinates in 6 to 10 days depending on soil temperature and weather conditions.
REMARKS:
For best crop, keep free of weeds. Do not hoe when wet. For highest quality and yield, pick pods when young, about 3 to 4 inches long. For continuous crop, make successive plantings every 2 to 3 weeks until mid-summer.
