Delicious, fleshy 3" round pods are great to eat whole when fully grown. GARDEN HINTS: Provide strong support for 6' vines. For earliest sowing, prepare rows in fall to avoid working cool, wet, spring soil. Sow 2 or 3 times, 7 to 10 days apart, to extend harvest. To save space, sow in double rows 3" apart with 2 1/2 to 3' of space between double rows.
