Culture: Sow in drills 3 ft. apart, placing 
the seeds, eye downward, 18 to 24 in. 
apart in the row, or plant in hills 3 ft. 
apart each way, later thinning to allow 
one or two plants to each hill. A packet 
will plant about 25 ft. of row. One lb. is 
enough for 100 ft. of row. 25 to 30 lbs. of 
seed are needed per acre. Depending 
upon the variety, the pods will be ready 
for picking in 65 to 85 days after sowing. 
Lima Beans must not be planted until 
the soil is quite warm and moderately 
dry. In most sections they are planted 
about two weeks after the first sowing 
of string beans. The soil for Limas 
should be rich, well drained, and porous.
