Planting and Care Instructions (From this Label)

Along a trellis about 6 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 4 leaves. Pick when pods are nearly mature, but beans are not fully developed and pods are still crisp.
