Planting and Care Instructions (From this Label)
Along a trellis about six feet tall, sow a seed every 4 inches when soil is warm. Soaking seeds overnight before planting will speed germination. Thin to one plant every 8 inches when plants have four true leaves. Pick when pods are nearly mature but beans are not fully developed and pods are still crisp.
