Growing tips

Pre-cultivation is possible in pots, from February can also be sown directly in the open ground. Plant the seeds about 5cm deep, in row spacing of 15x50cm. Press gently and cover with sufficient soil. Germination: 10-20 days at 5-20°C. This variety can grow up to 120cm high. Mounding soil on the stems at a growth height of about 15cm will aid in stability. Do not allow to dry out. Young plants tolerate frost to -3°C. Ready for harvest from June, depending on sowing time. Mature beans are clearly distinguishable by their green pods and are soft. Further cultivation tips with the type of field bean.
