Kings Seeds Climbing French Bean Hunter 100 Seeds

Climbing French Bean Hunter

Hunter produces bright green, flat-podded, stringless beans, which are ideal for forcing under heated glass, unheated polytunnels or maincrops outside. It is a very prolific variety. Climbing French Beans such as this variety should be supported in much the same way as you would Runner Beans.

Sow from April to June. Early sowings can be made under glass at a temperature of 16°C. Sow into 8cm pots or modular trays filled with seed sowing compost. Outside sowings can be made from May onwards into the growing site 5cm deep. Sow 2-3 seeds every 20cm apart with rows spaced 45cm apart. Seedlings sown under glass should be gradually hardened off before planting outside in late May to the above spacing, once all risk of frost has past. Direct sown seedlings can be thinned out as required. Water regularly during dry weather. Ready to harvest from July to September.
