Golden beans grow best when planted in the monsoon and early winter months. For best results, plant in June, July, September or October, when the weather is at its most favourable.
Prepare a rich, well-drained soil with a pH ranging from 6.0 to 7.5. To improve soil aeration and root penetration, add organic compost to the soil and till it properly for higher yields.
Pick high-quality, disease-resistant seeds. Treat seeds with a fungicide or bio-agent to avoid illnesses transmitted through the soil, ensuring proper germination and robust seedling growth.
Plant seeds 1 to 2 inches deep, allowing 6 to 8 inches between plants and 18 to 24 inches between rows. Seeds sown at the right depth and spacing will ensure optimal plant development and good yields.
Water the soil often to maintain a constant moisture level and prevent waterlogging. Mulching and timely weeding eliminate competition for nutrients and ensure that plants develop as best they can.
Golden beans should be harvested 60 to 70 days after sowing or when the pods are completely developed. To prevent plant damage and ensure a high-quality harvest, use clean, sharp equipment.
