The Lake Valley Seed Organic Bean (Bush) Blue Lake 274 has unbeatable flavor and productivity! It produces big yields of 6" pods that are straight, round, meaty and stingless. Organic Blue Lake 274 beans are great for freezing, canning and fresh use. Planting: Plant beans in late spring after soil has completely warmed. Replant any "skips" in your rows as soon as most of the seedlings have emerged. Thinning is usually not necessary. Harvest: You will need to pick pods regularly just as they start to fill out for best flavor. Although bush beans will continue to bear throughout the season, their largest production comes in the first flush. Replant every 3 weeks through mid-summer for a continuous harvest.Price: $8.06
