Planting autumn beans methods and steps

1. Choose the variety

Before planting beans in autumn, you must first prepare suitable varieties. Suitable varieties will grow better and have higher yields. If you choose varieties with shorter growth cycles, the harvest day can also come earlier. You can choose to collect the seeds for planting yourself or buy them directly.

2. Land preparation and fertilization

Autumn beans are more suitable for sunny, loose, fertile, and humus soil. After plowing the soil, add the prepared base fertilizer into the soil to ensure that there is sufficient nutrition to maintain the growth of autumn beans and flowers.
