Growing tips

The bush bean is a cold-sensitive legume. As bush beans belong to the legume family, they can form a symbiotic relationship with nitrogen-fixing bacteria and are therefore a good pre-crop for nutrient-requiring crops. The different varieties vary in size and color of the beans. Direct sowing in clusters or rows is possible until mid-July. Stability is increased by sowing in clumps and by regularly hoeing around the plants. During the main harvest period, you can harvest the ripe pods every three days. If you cover the seedlings with fleece or foil, early sowing is possible, even if the temperatures are still low. Nitrogen fertilization is not necessary as the nodule bacteria fix nitrogen on the roots.
