Beans are tender and should not be planted until the soil is well warmed. 
Sowing too early will often result in a poor stand and uneven ripening. Sow the 
seed 144 to 2 inches deep in rows not less than 18 inches apart and firm the soil 
to assist germination. Allow the plants to stand 4 to 10 inches apart in the row

than any other sort and therefore can be planted extremely early and very late 
in the season. They should be picked as soon as ready as they will become
