Description
Runner Bean seeds "Polestar" is a completely stringless bean, producing bright green, smooth, fleshy pods. This variety is an early and heavy cropper too! Of all the different types of pulses, Runner Beans are probably the most popular variety for home growing. There is nothing quite like the fresh taste of your just picked beans, from your very own garden, with your dinner! When to Sow: April to June. Where to Sow: Early sowings can be made underglass at a temperature of 16°C, sow 3 seeds per 8cm (3in) pot filled with seed sowing compost. Outside sowings can be made from May onwards into the growing site 5cm (2in) deep. Sow 2-3 seeds every 20-30cm(8-12in) apart with rows spaced 60cm (24in) apart. What to do next: Seedlings sown underglass should be gradually hardened off before planting outside in late May to the above spacing, once all risk of frost has past. Place a support cane at each planting station. Alternatively circular plantings can be made with canes joined at the centre to form a wigwam. For optimum crop, place canes 30-45cm (12-18") apart with 3 beans planted per cane. Water regularly during dry weather. Maturity: July to September. Handy Tip: During very hot weather, give plants plenty of water at the roots in the evenings and spray the foliage and flowers to help cool the plants down to improve germination. For Flower Drop we recommend applying a dusting of lime to the soil in early winter over the area set aside for runner beans the next year, so that it will get washed into the topsoil by the winters rain. Nutritional Value: A good source of Vitamin C, Folic acid and Iron. High fibre content.
