WHEN TO SOW

April to June



WHERE TO SOW

Early sowings can be made under glass at a temperature of 16°C, sow 3 seeds per 8cm (3in) pot filled with seed sowing compost. Outside sowings can be made from May onwards into the growing site 5cm (2in) deep. Sow 2-3 seeds every 20-30cm(8-12in) apart with rows spaced 60cm (24in) apart.



WHAT TO DO NEXT

Seedlings that are sown under glass should be gradually hardened off before planting outside in late May to the above spacing, once all risk of frost has passed. Place a support cane at each planting station. Alternatively, circular plantings can be made with canes joined at the centre to form a wigwam. For optimum crop, place canes 30-45cm (12-18") apart with 3 beans planted per cane. Water regularly during dry weather.



HARVEST

May to July



HANDY TIP

Sow small amounts are regular intervals to ensure a continuous supply of beans throughout the season. Purple beans turn green when cooked.



NUTRITIONAL VALUES

A good source of vitamin C, folic acid and Iron. Also has a high fibre content.
