When is the best time to sow green beans

The suitable sowing period for green beans is from late May to early June. Green beans belong to the Fabaceae family, Glycine genus, and are an annual climbing herbaceous plant. According to the color of their cotyledons, they can be divided into two types: green-skin green-kernel soybeans and green-skin yellow-kernel soybeans. It is one of China's important food crops.

Green beans require attention to the harvest time. Generally, when the pods are relatively plump and the pods have a slightly yellow-green color, they need to be harvested. You cannot wait until the pods turn yellow and old before harvesting, because the green beans harvested that way will no longer be tender. At the same time, we also need to save seeds. The pods kept for seed must wait until they are very hard before harvesting. Of course, you also cannot wait until the pods split open to harvest, because the loss would be relatively great.
