Beans are very easy to grow, so they would be a great choice for you if you are a first time gardener. There are a lot of different kind of beans that you can grow, so the first step in planting beans is to choose which kind you want to plant.When choosing a type of bean keep in mind that there are two different categories. There are pole beans and bush beans. Their names basically describe how they grow. Pole beans grow tall, like a pole, while bush beans grow to look like a bush. Today I am going to tell you how to grow pole beans.

When beginning to plant beans, it is very important to find a spot to plant them. Finding a spot to plant is very important because on average beans should get at least 6 hours of sunlight a day. So make sure you choose a spot that gets enough sunlight.

Once you have a location chosen, it is time to begin planting. When planting beans, plant the seeds about 1 to 1.5 inches into the ground. Also, there is no specific amount of space needed between seeds. I usually make them about 2-3 inches apart. After you have planted the seeds, make sure that you provide support for them to grow on since they grow like a vine. Usually I use a fence. Also, make sure that you water your beans daily.

When harvesting your beans, remember that there is no specific growing time since new pods grow everyday. Just look for pods that are a good size. Also, make sure that the pods are firm and not flimsy.
