Davis

Season Overview

Description

The round, slender pods of the high-yielding Davis variety are dark green in color and grow to a length of 15-16 cm. After a short cooking process, bush beans are a popular vegetable for traditional cooking. However, beans should never be eaten raw. Davis, with its aromatic pods, is a gourmet bush bean that is very easy to harvest. The vigorous, healthy and, above all, sturdy plants stand out due to their numerous resistances, which are the result of a natural breeding process. They are resistant to grease spot, scorch spot, mosaic virus and other diseases. Thorough watering increases the yield.

Growing tips

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.
