Bean Coco Sophie – Heirloom Seeds / Rare seeds

Sowing: April to July

Harvest: July to October

Beans need heat to germinate! Sowing in the ground: from the beginning of April in the south, from the end of April in the west, from mid-May in the other regions. When frosts are no longer to be feared. Soak the seeds in water (preferably rain) at room temperature the day before sowing. It needs warm soil to germinate (12°C mini). Dig furrows 2-3 cm deep in a sunny position along a line, sow in pockets (4-5 seeds in staggered rows every 40 cm). Close the furrow and tamp with the back of the rake. Water in fine rain. 15 days after emergence, when the plants are 15 cm tall, hoe, weed and form a small mound of soil at the base of the stalk rising to the first 2 leaves. You can stagger your sowing until the end of July. Water regularly, especially during the flowering period. Harvest: very productive pole variety that can be eaten as Snap Beans if the pods are picked young. Pick dried beans when their pods are dry. Beans are a plant that improves the composition of the soil after cultivation by increasing its nitrogen content.
