Green Bush Beans 
Beans are one of the most satisfactory and productive vegetables because they grow so vigorously and bear 
with such wonderful abundance. Plants of the Bush Beans range from 15 to 20 in. tall. Seed cannot be sown 
until the weather is quite warm. In the vicinity of Philadelphia, early May is about the right time for the 
first sowing of Bush Beans. A warm, well-drained, sandy loam is best suited. The beans are most delicious 
if they are picked before they have reached full size, and the plants will continue bearing much longer. The 
early varieties mature in from 45 to 65 days. To provide for a continuous supply, seed should be sown every 
10 to 14 days up to August 10th. Plant in rows not less than 18 in. apart, cover with 2 in. of soil, and firm 
the surface to assist germination. One pound of seed sown thinly fills a row 250 ft. long; usually 90 lbs. of 
seed are sown per acre.
