Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

• No special preparation required. Blue Lake seeds are ready to be sown directly into the soil.

Sowing:

• Plant seeds directly into the garden soil after the last frost date has passed.
• Depth & Spacing: Sow seeds 1-2 inches deep and space them 3-6 inches apart, either in rows or hills.
• Soil Temperature: For optimal germination, maintain a soil temperature of 70-80°F (21-27°C).

Germination:

• Keep the soil consistently moist until seeds germinate, typically within 7-14 days.

Transplanting:

• Blue Lake beans are best direct-sown into the garden and generally do not require transplanting. However, if you’re starting indoors for an early start, transplant seedlings once they have at least two sets of true leaves.

Care and Maintenance:

• Provide support for pole beans using trellises, poles, or other structures to encourage vertical growth.
• Water consistently, ensuring the plants receive about 1 inch of water per week.
• Mulch around the plants to retain moisture, suppress weeds, and maintain consistent soil temperature.
• Harvest beans regularly to encourage continuous production throughout the growing season.

These beans are perfect for fresh eating, canning, or freezing, providing a bountiful harvest for your kitchen all season long.
