Planting and Care Instructions (From this Label)
Direct sow seeds outside at least 1 week after the last frost, since beans are sensitive to cold. Sow 1" deep and 3" apart, in rows 2' to 3' apart, and press down earth above seeds for good soil contact. Allow 7-12 days to germinate. After germination, maintain soil moisture; beans have shallow roots, and need water at least once a week if the weather is dry. Mulching the plants helps conserve moisture and discourages weeds.
