Planting & Care Instructions

  1. Soil Preparation: Requires well-draining, light sandy-loam soil. Tolerates sandy soils well. Potting mix: equal parts fine garden soil, cocopeat, and compost or vermicompost. Maintain soil pH between 6.5 and 8.0.

  2. Sowing: Sow seeds directly into final containers or garden beds 1 to 1.5 cm ($\frac{1}{2}$ inch) deep. Space seeds 4 to 6 inches apart in rows spaced 12 inches apart. Soaking seeds in water for 6 hours prior to sowing helps uniform germination.

  3. Watering: Water moderately. Cluster beans are naturally drought-hardy and prefer dry warm weather; avoid overwatering or waterlogging, which causes root rot.

  4. Spacing & Care: Thin young plants to 6 inches apart once established. Being a legume, it fixes atmospheric nitrogen into the soil; feed with a mild organic compost or seaweed extract once flowering begins. Spray neem oil solution to protect against aphids and leafhoppers. Harvest pods while young, slender, and pliable.
