Beans can be planted in hills or rows and pole beans will grow on climbing vines. They need a trellis for support.Do not start seeds indoors as they may not survive transplanting.Prepare the planting bed by using a garden fork to loosen the soil. For rows, plant the beans at the same depth with spacing about 18-24 inches apart.Once the seedlings begin to develop true leaves, the plants can be thinned to 6 inches apart. Mulch soil to retain moisture.Do not rush your bean planting. Seeds planted too soon will be slow to germinate or rot, forcing you to replant again later.
