Growing your own vegetables from seed is one of the most rewarding parts of gardening. From a small and simple seed, something truly amazing grows – in this case, beans. At Florea, we offer a carefully curated selection of high-quality bean seeds to help you grow your own harvest.
What You Need to Know About Planting and Harvesting Beans
When choosing which type of bean seed to plant, it’s important to consider your local climate and soil conditions. Most varieties of beans thrive in full sun and well-drained soil for the best results.
Preparing the Soil for Sowing Bean Seeds
Before sowing, make sure your soil is rich and well-prepared. Beans prefer well-drained soil with a pH between 6.0 and 7.5. Adding compost or organic matter before sowing improves your chances of success.
Sow the seeds directly outdoors once the risk of frost has passed – usually around mid-May in most regions. Plant the seeds about 3–5 cm deep and space them roughly 20 cm apart.
Harvesting Your Own Beans – A True Reward
Harvesting beans that you’ve grown from seed is a truly special experience. The flavour is far superior to store-bought varieties, and there’s nothing more satisfying than enjoying your own homegrown produce.
With consistent watering and occasional feeding, your bean plants will reward you with a generous harvest.
At Florea, we believe that growing from seed brings both joy and sustainability – and it’s easier than you might think! Whether you're a beginner or an experienced gardener, our range of quality bean seeds has something for every growing need.
