How to grow Bean 

CANARY Bean is a fast-growing, easy-to-grow bush bean that produces high yields in just 2-4 weeks. Suitable for Zones 5 and 13, it prefers sunny areas with moderately watered, well-draining soil and a pH of 6.0-6.8..

How to Pick Dry Beans: Harvest beans once the pods are dry on the plant. Our dry bean types all consistently dry down by approximately September 15, the date that frost poses a risk. In the event of frost and if the beans still need time to dry, gather the pods and bring them inside to dry. They are considered fully dried when the pods are crispy. Remove the shells and utilize.
