CULTURE As bean foliage is very tender, it is best to wait until danger of frost is past before planting the 
seed. (Usually May 1st.) Most soils will bear a good crop. A rich sandy loam will give better returns. Sow 
seeds in rows 24 to 56 inches apart, dropping the beans 3 inches apart in the row, cover 2 inches deep. Hoe 
as soon as seedlings appear. When the second or third pair of leaves begin to form, hill the rows slightly 
toward the plant. Repeat the hilling process as the plants grow larger. Never cultivate while the bushes are 
wet with dew or rain. For succession of young tender pods, sow every two weeks up to August 15th. A frequent 
picking of pods will keep the plants bearing. If the soil is not fertile, drill B-B Grower in the rows before seeds 
are dropped.
