If you are unable to sow Aquadulce in November, this is the rescue plan. In most years it matures almost as early as Aquadulce but from an early spring sowing.
Notes: HARVEST June onwards
WHEN TO SOW February to April
WHERE TO SOW February sowings in pots or root trainers in the greenhouse or under cloches in the growing site. Later sowings draw out seed drills direct into the growing site 5cm(2in) deep in rows, spacing the seeds 10-15cm (4-6in) apart, and spacing the rows 60cm (24") apart. WHAT TO DO NEXT Glasshouse seedlings should be transplanted to the growing site in March, 10cm (4") apart in rows 60cm (24in) apart. Outdoor sowings should be thinned to 10cm (4") apart, the thinning's can be transplanted to make extra rows. When the first beans form, remove the top 6cm (2 1/2in) to help discourage blackfly.
HARVEST once pods become filled with succulent tasty young beans. MATURITY June to August
HANDY TIP One of the few varieties that can also be sown in the Autumn. Try a sowing in late October or November under cloches for a really early Spring crop.
NUTRITIONAL VALUE Vitamins A, C and E and a good source of protein.
