Culture. May be sown the year round in California. 
They will grow in almost any soil, but a deep, rich 
loam is best for main crop; the early varieties for win¬ 
ter will do best on a light, warm soil; deep plowing of 
the ground is essential. They are sown in single or 
double rows from eighteen inches to 4 feet apart, ac¬ 
cording to the height of the variety. The tall sorts 
should have sticks to climb over. For the field crop it 
requires from 60 to SO pounds to the acre; for home 
garden, plant one pound to 50 feet of row.
