Runner Bean: Best of all Seeds

Indoor Planting:

• Sow seeds 3cm deep in trays or pots of moist compost, be careful not to over-water.
• Store in a warm place at an approx. temperature of 16°c (60°f).

Growing On:

• When seedlings are strong enough to handle they can be planted out 12" (30cm) apart in your desired location.
• Harden off first.

Outdoor Planting:

• Sow seeds 5cm deep direct in growing bed keeping 6" (15cm) between each seed.
• For best results sow in double rows with a space of 12" (30cm) between each row, allow 18" (45cm) between each set of double rows.
• Keep the soil moist.
• The Beans will need support as they grow, netting or canes are ideal.

• Pick the pods regularly to extend the harvest period.
• Runner Beans are deep rooted and therefore, require a well cultivated, water retaining soil.
• Plant in a sheltered area and protect with cloches from late frosts.
• Approximately 6 seeds per pack
