Growing green beans

Black Eyed Peas

Green beans are a dietary product whose protein content is close to that of meat. Its unripe beans contain a large amount of microelements and vitamins. The juicy leaves are also suitable for food; unlike other varieties, they do not contain a parchment layer.

Growing green beans

  1. Seeds are planted early, in soil that has not yet had time to warm up.
  2. Plants should be located at a distance from perennial crops, in the roots of which slugs often live, which can harm young bean leaves.
  3. Shoots require strong support; not every fence can withstand their weight. You should not use a net; it will be difficult to remove tangled lashes from it.
  4. It is important to harvest the pods on time, otherwise the grains will become coarse and unfit for consumption.
  5. For long-term storage, beans need to be frozen.

The most popular varieties: Vigna, Saksa, Maslyanaya, Oltin, Yubileynaya, Kharkovskaya white-seeded, Beloozernaya.

Growing green beans is possible even on acidic and alkaline soils, but a rich harvest will ripen only on fertile soil. The best precursors for the crop are: potatoes, root vegetables, cucumbers, cabbage, and onions. It is worth planting in the same place no earlier than after 3-4 years.

Comments

This year we planted asparagus beans for the first time and have already harvested the harvest, I must say the harvest is quite good, we collected more than a kilogram from a small garden bed. They didn’t do any special care, they didn’t even do any support or anything - everything was fine!
