Planting Instructions

Seed Preparation

Pre-soaking: Soak seeds in water for 12-24 hours before planting to speed up germination.

Sowing

Timing        : Sow seeds outdoors after the last frost date when the soil has warmed up to at least 60°F (15.5°C).

Depth        : Plant seeds 1 inch (2.5 cm) deep.

Spacing       : Space seeds 3-4 inches (7.6-10 cm) apart in rows that are 18-24 inches (45.7-61 cm) apart.

Germination

Temperature       : Seeds will germinate best in soil temperatures between 70-85°F (21-29°C).

Time              : Germination typically occurs in 7-14 days.

Transplanting

Direct Seeding   : Rattlesnake Snap Beans are usually direct-seeded into the garden and not transplanted.

Thinning         : If necessary, thin seedlings to one plant every 6 inches (15 cm) once they reach 3 inches (7.6 cm) tall.

Care and Maintenance

Watering       : Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Beans need about 1 inch (2.5 cm) of water per week.

Support: Provide a trellis, pole, or other support structure for the vines to climb.

Weeding: Keep the area around the plants free of weeds to reduce competition for nutrients and water.

Harvesting: Harvest beans when they are young and tender, usually about 60-75 days after planting. Regular harvesting encourages more production.
