Climbing Bean – Helda – Cultivation advice
- Beans are hungry crops that require ample organic matter dug in prior to sowing.
- Sow in pots undercover in April for an earlier harvest (heat required for good germination) or directly outside when all danger of frost has passed.
- Protect young plants from pests.
- Loosely tie in young plants to supports.
- Feed once in flower with a high-potash fertiliser to prolong cropping.
