GREEN-PODDED BUSH BEANS 
Culture: How to Grow Fall Beans. Plant up to 
September 20. In Florida and South Texas later 
plantings are made. Sow iy 2 to 2 inches deep. 
3 to 4 inches apart, in rows 2% to 3% feet 
apart. Cultivate often until plants blossom. 
Deep cultivation when in bloom will cause many 
flowers to fall, and cultivating when vines are 
wet with dew may cause rust and spread an- 
thracnose if it is present. Beans are more de¬ 
licious picked before the pods reach their full 
size. Freqxient picking insures a prolonged bear¬ 
ing' season. Two pounds will sow 100 feet of 
row; 60 pounds (bushel), an acre.
