How many times a year can green beans be planted? Can they be planted all year round?

Green beans can be planted twice a year . The best planting time is in spring from March to April, but the specific time for planting green beans still depends on the climate of each location. They can also be planted in autumn from July to September.

Green Bean Planting Conditions

1. Temperature

Green beans like warmth and are not frost-resistant. The temperature range for germination of its seeds is 20-30 degrees Celsius. If it is lower than 10 degrees Celsius or higher than 40 degrees Celsius, it will not germinate. It is sensitive to temperature changes during the seedling stage. It begins to lose green color at a low temperature of 2-3 degrees Celsius and freezes to death at 0 degrees Celsius.

2. Lighting

French bean harvest time

Because the growth period of green beans is relatively short, it generally only takes 80-90 days from planting to harvesting. The growth period of green beans has a lot to do with the climate and breeding methods of each region. If the temperature and other aspects are suitable, green beans can be harvested quickly. On the contrary, if the maintenance is not appropriate, the harvest time of green beans may be a little longer.
