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.
