A member of the Legume family of plants, the green pole bean is a tender annual that can be grown year long in temperate climates. Considered one of the classics in cuisines world over, the green pole beans are a great choice for gardens with limited space. The climbing vines of green pole beans can grow up to 4 to 5 feet in height and will require some staking or trellis support to grow a healthy plant. The pole varieties of beans can take relatively longer than bush varieties to mature and grow bean pods. Green beans are also a self-pollinating plant and do not require pollinators to produce pods, thereby making them ideal for urban gardens. The bean pods can be harvested once they are 6 to 7 inches long and prepared whole or chopped as needed. Harvested beans will stay fresh up to two weeks in the refrigerator.
Planting instructions
Pole beans must be planted in a spot with the full sun after the last frost. The soil bed can be prepared before sowing with organic compost and stakes. Sow seeds at a depth of 1 inch. It is advisable to grow pole beans directly garden outside since the fragile roots of the plant do not like to be disturbed once established.
Growing Requirements
pests & diseases
Some common green pole bean pests are spider mites, aphids, leafhoppers and beetles which can be removed manually or dealt with an organic neem spray. In addition to these, wilting and bacterial diseases are also common in pole beans which can occur due to wet foliage of the plants. Hence it is important to keep watering at the soil level.
soil
Rich, well-drained soil with the pH ranging between 6 to 7 is ideal for growing green pole beans. Bean seeds will not germinate in cold soil.
spot
Green pole beans like warm soil and will benefit from a sunny spot that receives 5-6 hours of direct sunlight every day.
temperature
Ideal germination temperature for green pole bean seeds must range between 21-26 ℃(70-80℉).
watering
Water gently early in the day so that the plant has time to dry off during the day to avoid diseases. Keep the top 1-inch layer of the soil evenly moist with less frequent but deep watering. Try mulching the soil properly to avoid frequent watering.
how to harvest
Once the bean pods are 7-8 inches in length, you can start harvesting green pole bean pods. Snip them off the plant with a pair of gardening scissors or a sharp knife without damaging the stem or branches of the plant. Harvesting can also promote more sprouting of new pods in the plant. If you wish to use dried bean seeds, just let the bean pod partially dry on the plant. Then let them dry in a ventilated place until they reach the desired dry state.
