Sow Stamslabonen beans directly outdoors from mid-May to mid-July in rows spaced 50 cm apart, placing seeds 10 cm apart within each row. For an earlier start, sow indoors under glass from mid-April and transplant seedlings outside after mid-May. Choose a warm location with moderately moist soil, avoiding cold or wet conditions that hinder germination. Ensure soil fertility does not include fresh farmyard manure. This planting method supports the development of slender, tender pods and encourages a bountiful early harvest throughout the summer months.
Stamslabonen beans flourish best in warm, moderately moist soil with good drainage. Regular watering is essential, especially during dry spells, but avoid waterlogging to prevent sensitivity issues. Space plants about 50 cm apart in rows, allowing 10 cm between each bean for optimal growth. Providing support can help keep pods clean and accessible. Monitor for pests and diseases, addressing any issues promptly to maintain healthy plants. Harvest the tender pods once they reach desired size, ensuring continuous production throughout the summer by picking regularly. These beans also freeze well for extended use.
