Lima Beans Rise as Popular Garden Crop and Market Item
The article notes a shift in lima bean cultivation from unreliable germination to wider planting with seeds now common in markets, even in winter. It explains seeds have long viability, and emphasizes that proper planting with eye down allows the seed leaves to lift and emerge.
How to Grow Lima Beans for Better Harvests
The article explains germination tips for limas, noting edgewise planting improves sprouting. It contrasts shallow planting which dries out seed, with eye-down sinking for better germination and discusses market value, trellising, and spacing. Pole limas yield more per area than bush varieties, but many gardeners prefer bush types and face disappointing results. Plants need warm soil and ample space, with eighteen inches between hills and two plants per hill as a guideline. Pole beans are more efficient for dense gardens, doubling yield per area.
