Non hybrid

Frostproof

Growing tips

When growing field beans, you can remember one thing: sow early and deep! Sowing too late often leads to aphid infestation and gives unwanted weeds a head start. Sowing deeper has a positive effect on stability. Direct sowing is possible from the end of February to the end of March. Alternatively, you can preplant cuttings from the end of January. After about four weeks, plant them out in suitable weather conditions. Depending on the variety, expect around 100 days until harvest. You can mound the plants for a better stand. Otherwise, they are very undemanding.
