- Soil requirements: Fortex Pole Beans prefer well-drained, fertile soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 6.8. The soil should be rich in organic matter to support healthy growth.
- Sunlight needs: These beans require full sun, which means they need at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight per day.
- Watering requirements: Water the plants regularly, ensuring the soil remains consistently moist but not waterlogged. It's best to water deeply once or twice a week, depending on weather conditions.
- Planting season: The best time to plant Fortex Pole Bean seeds is in the spring after the last frost date, when the soil temperature has warmed to at least 60°F (15°C).
- Depth and spacing: Plant the seeds about 1 inch deep and space them 3 to 4 inches apart. If planting in rows, space the rows about 18 to 24 inches apart.
- Germination time: Fortex Pole Bean seeds typically germinate within 7 to 14 days under optimal conditions.
- Maturity time: Fortex Pole Beans reach maturity in approximately 60 to 70 days after planting.
- Harvesting time: The best time to harvest is in the early morning when the beans are crisp and fresh.
- Harvesting tips: Use a sharp knife or scissors to cut the beans from the vine to avoid damaging the plant. Harvest the beans when they are about 6 to 11 inches long and before the seeds inside become too large. Store the harvested beans in a cool, dry place or refrigerate them to maintain freshness.
