GROWING INSTRUCTIONS:
Direct sow seeds outdoors after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed up to at least 65°F. Plant seeds 1 inch deep and 4-6 inches apart in rows spaced about 2-3 feet apart. Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during germination and pod development. Lima beans are relatively drought-tolerant once established and can be harvested in about 65-80 days.
