BEANS - Kentucky Blue Pole Bean Seeds - Heirloom

Description: BEANS - Kentucky Blue Pole Bean Seeds - Heirloom - QTY: 50 Quantity: 50 Seeds Non-Gmo Heirloom Pole beans yield two to three times more than bush beans from the same space. They are easier to harvest, and many gardeners believe they are better tasting. Both types have similar requirements, except pole beans need a 5– to 8-foot tall support. Can provide strong background or vertical element in flower garden. How to plant: Propagate by seed Germination temperature: 70 F to 80 F—germination is slow and poor when soil temperatures are below 60 F. Days to emergence: 8-10Seed can be saved 5 years if stored properly Sow seeds 1 inch deep (deeper if soil is dry), in hills of four to six seeds at the base of each pole. Plant 3 inches apart in rows along the base of linear trellises. Soaking beans to hasten germination may damage seeds. Do not start seed inside. Do not plant until danger of frost has passed and soil has warmed. Germination is poor when soil temperature is below 60 F. Cold air temperatures (even above freezing) can injure plant and reduce yields. AAS award winner 1991 Further Tips Beans require even moisture—about 1 inch per week—especially when flowering and developing pods. If you water, avoid wetting foliage, which encourages disease. Water early in the day so foliage dries quickly. Mulch after second set of true leaves develops to help retain moisture. Construct trellis, teepee, or single-pole support before seeding to avoid injuring plant roots later. Bamboo poles or saplings lashed together make easy, inexpensive supports. Do not locate trellis where it will shade other plants that need full sun. Pod set is often poor when temperatures exceed 90 F. Deformed pods may be the result of lack of moisture, poor soil fertility or insect damage during blooming. A three-year rotation helps reduce some diseases. Do not use nitrogen fertilizers. Inoculating seed with rhizobium bacteria may increase yields, especially in soils where beans have not been grown before.
