Growing tips

Germination in 8-10 days at 18-20°C; the soil temperature should be at least 15°C, otherwise the seeds will rot. Sow directly outdoors from mid-May to mid-July; first sow, then water and cover with 3 cm of soil. Direct sowing in clumps or rows is possible until mid-July. Stability is increased by sowing in clumps and by regularly hoeing around the plants. During the main harvesting 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.
