WEST COAST SEEDS POLE BEANS BLUE LAKE
Blue Lake pole bean seeds produce pods that are straight, stringless and unusually smooth, with a stronger flavour than the bush variety.

  • Plants bear lots of dark green pods that are round to oval, tender and meaty, 15-18cm (6-7 inches) long.
  • Blue Lake has a very long harvest window, and will keep producing new pods as long as the vines are kept picked.
  • Provide a pole or trellis for this tall vine to grow up.
  • This variety is hugely popular for its productivity in the Prairies and other short season growing regions.

    Starting Pole Bean Seeds

  • Seeds can be started indoors, or sowed directly.
  • Seeds will sprout in 8-16 days, depending on soil conditions.
  • Try to plant during a warm, dry spell. Soil must be warm – if it is not warm enough, seeds may rot, especially our untreated seeds. Optimal soil temperature: 21-32°C (70-90°F).
  • Pole Beans will climb by twining around almost anything. Try rough poles, or a strong trellis 2-2.5m (6-8ft) tall or netting for vining plants.


    Companion Planting For Beans

  • Beans fix nitrogen in the soil. Plant with Brassicas, carrots, celery, chard, corn, cucumber, eggplant, peas, potatoes, radish, and strawberries.
  • Avoid planting near chives, garlic, leeks, and onions. Pole beans and beets stunt each other's growth.
