How Do You Grow Blue Lake Bush Green Beans?
There’s nothing quite like growing your own vegetables, especially when it comes to growing green beans–Blue Lake green beans. Their flavor is unsurpassed and bush beans are just as prolific as runner beans but take up less space and are more compact. Top and tail them and steam or boil them, and finish off with a generous pat of butter and a little black pepper. Prepare the land by tilling carefully. Remove twigs, rocks, roots and other debris as you go. Ensure the soil is crumbly and small—large clumpy wads of dirt will need to be broken up into uniform small pieces. Buy guaranteed seed organic if it’s within your gardening budget and remember, beans are a legume and even when the crop is finished, all organic matter that remains may be plowed under to fix the nitrogen in your soil–great for the next season. Run twine in straight lines 2 feet apart where you want to plant your seeds. This will keep your garden neat and will allow you to walk between rows to harvest your crop easily
