Growing Pole Beans Easily in Small Spaces and Yeah... Up Poles! - TRG 2014

- A lot of us tend to go for planting bush beans over pole beans. Bush beans can take up more space, produce less and sometimes have more problems. Pole beans are very easy to grow. 8 foot stakes from stores can be bought for about 2 bucks. This is one simple way I grow them. Very productive!

The native americans planted a stalk of corn, let it grow about five inches, then planted pole beans around it. That way you have your pole for the beans to grow up AND an ear of corn. Yay! Thanks for the video!!
Thanks
mine initially wrapped around the tall growing grass then put the stakes in. thinking if needed i can guide them toward my taller fence. I am a first timer. Plucked one bean ate it raw. what is next?
my grandma born in yugoslavia did it that way also
memos Atlatl m
"First Nations peoples planted corn, pole beans, and pumpkins together. The corn served as support for the beans and in turn the beans release nitrogen into the soil. The pumpkins cover the bare ground, to keep the weeds down." - Prariegardens.org
I am so excited I just took my first bean off my pole beans (june16) and i starteded them from bean seed. I ate it raw...hope i don't poop a storm.
We renovated our closet and I saw your timely video on how to make that trellis. I spray painted the wire shelves dark green and it worked well for the cucumbers. After, we planted yard-long beans and they are growing right up and over them. The bumble bees love the flowers. Thanks for that great time/money-saving and good gardening practice tips!
CM Nakagawa Of course!
I like to use 2 stakes and a piece of 4' fencing. The bean plants climb the fencing, look great and produce many fruits.
That works. Thanks

My folks always planted bush beans, talk about back breaking!! This is my first year at a new place and I have a much larger garden area than I have had in the past, so I ventured out trying many new plants and techniques. I decided to plant pole beans on a "trellis" made from cattle panels formed into a hoop/arch. They have been doing great! I can walk under the arch and pick the beans hanging down - VERY EASY! I also planted cucumbers on the other side of the arch and carrots, lettuce, and onions inside/under the arch. Tried small watermelon and muskmelon as well, but, they didn't climb as well as the pole beans and cucumber. Live and learn. :-)
Tim Sheets The arch is a really good idea. Just jotted it down.
Butternut squash didn't do well on the panel trellis, either. They climbed some, but the gourds were smaller than I would get by letting them trail. This year, I have 8 buttercup squash growing on 4 arched panels, and they are loving it - the panels may start getting crowded soon. Its too bad that your muskmelons didn't take to the trellis, but I have an idea for them - building a sort of stepped/shelf trellis that can support the weight of the fruit. If that works, we might be able to get butternut or some small watermelons to go vertical - wouldn't that be great? ! :)
Yep, I used to have only bush beans to avoid the trouble of setting up a trellis but tried the pole beans this year. I'm sold on them.
Im going to pull bush green beans from my plantings. Pole beans are on 3rd harvest and still going strong.
***** I am going to pull bush beans from my plantings. Pole beans are on 3rd harvest and going strong.
Glad to see your beans growing. This year I had success on my pole and bush beans. Last year I tried to grow them too, but found that the beans kept rotting away. Turns out, the ground was too cold, and I was burying them too deep. This year I have and still am(latest harvest yesterday) harvesting from both varieties! I am learning so much about container gardening! Thanks! All this on a 4 by 12 ft covered porch in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
Keep making us learn how to grow stuff, anywhere, and thanks for the tips on overwintering bell peppers.
***** Yes they do like warm ground. You can also get a jump by growing them in cups and then put out full plants when it warms.
I so wish I had a yard! Really shows the difference between container gardening and in-ground/raised beds. I used the same technique but in a large container (as I only have a patio/porch but no yard) and despite using compost, organic fertilizer, worm castings, etc, my pole beans didn't do nearly as well, get as big, or produce as much. I have a feeling it has to do with how much the roots can spread out and the soil biology. Perhaps someday...
Yeah it does make a big difference. You can still grow bush beans, they yield a lot beans too.
The roots do recognize they cant spread out and plant size can be effected
I have been exclusively container gardening for a few years. My veg/fruits always do fine. I use my own compost I make in another container and feed the plants regularly. Only plant to give me woes is watermelon. Always makes small but delicious watermelons. I'm currently trying out container citrus trees.
P
I just hefted 5 metal 8 foot posts up for my circle of beans. Made a teepee. They were heavy!
That will look great

Gary, how do you prune bean leaves? Do you snip at the base of the leaf or the base of the stem? My bush bean plants are out of control and I’m not getting enough air circulation or sun through the leaves! Don’t want to hurt the plants or encourage more foliage!
Gary, I prefer pole beans, too. I think they are more prolific and you are right, they don't take up near the space as bush beans.
And they taste better than bush beans. I love Kentucky Wonders!
I watch EVERY one of your videos they are very good, well spoken and to the point! :-)
Truckstuff4u Thanks. I really do try and make my goal of getting the info out quickly without a lot of filler.
Gary Pilarchik Thanks for the reply, you do a good job of videoing, I've added a few to mine, some about my trucking stuff, and a story video of the truck wreck that caused me to finally retire after I tried to get back into my business, again thanks!
Looks good! Tried pole beans last year for the first time! Love them!
So good!

My pole beans are going to outgrow their trellis by far.. I have a 4ft raised bed and don’t know what I can do to have them keep growing but not so tall?? Back down the trellis? Horizontal? Help! Lol
Bend and guide them back down.

It is funny how we use different terms here in the UK compared to America. WE call the bush variety Dwarf French Beans and the Pole Beans, Climbing French Beans. We call fava beans broad beans and lima beans butter beans. The structure you use to grow the beans with canes, here in the UK we call wigwam structure and you can buy attachment to the poles to attach the canes. Does this mean that your tomato growing season is coming to an end, as this seems a bit early. Generally when is your first frost date where you live, as one of my friend is predicting that some parts of America will have another severe winter.
Antonio Pachowko In my area disease gets tomatoes by late August. I have some still going but the cold is coming in. September is the last round. I did however plant cold tolerent varieties in late july. Ill see how they do. We typically get frost October. But A cold front is rolling in from Canada.
Beautiful! I already purchased a few different Pole beans, so I better dig them out and look them over and decide for next year. Thank you!
I'll give you my pole bean babe
I am going to have to try that with the poles next season. Thanks for posting Gary and have a great day!
Hi Gary, I live in SE Michigan, 6A. What pole bean would you suggest I grow that will give me a great yield? Thanks, Cindi
Gary , I am really bombarding you with questions today but this is why you are there, lol. Advice from the experts > i bough few FLAT beans in pots and i planted them in larger ones. instruction did not say much, I think this is called romano beans My question to you, is this bush or pole type of beans. thanks for your help
I don't know but the trick I use is seed companies. Search the name and you will get seed companies that pop up. They supply useful information.
I have another problem with my beans. I put six 5 foot steaks in my garden. I did 3 of them like a tee pee and the other 3 I just put in a row. Well 2 of them are growing pretty tall. About a foot above the stakes. With no where to go!! And the other ones aren’t growing that fast. Do you know what I can do about both of these issues?
Let them grow beyond the top a bit and then turn the back on to the post and secure them. They will climb back up themselves.
Gary Pilarchik (The Rusted Garden) thank you for your answer.
Thank you for the tips on the poles. I went and bought some stakes today at Home Depot. They had it for .99 each.
+Cindy Wong Thats a good deal. And the vertical growth of beans is a huge space saver.
Hi Gary! I love your garden... question, did you need to tie the poles together or just stuck them in the ground? And you recommended 3 seeds per pole? thank you Lori
+Lori Beardsley I would tie them provides a bit more support. 2-3 per pole works. Thank you for watching.
Thanks for the video and tips. You have a lot of garden to attend to there. Must keep you on your toes!
Karl Becker Keeps me active. So that is a bonus for exercise.
Ok, so I'm naive when it comes to beans. I want to grow lentils, and peas, like split peas you see in the store. So if I purchase a bag of these split peas will they come out like this in your video?
I want to know how to grow "split peas" like the bags of dry split peas sold in stores to make split pea soup.
Thanks.. I'll try this next year. I thought I was going to have to construct something a lot more elaborate. This looks do able.
Carroll02 Three posts/poles in the ground. I wanted to show it doesnt take much.
Thank you. I will remember and set it up
Dope! I have the same setup. Except its a 30 inch tall large pot.
I get away with growing kale at the base!
Very nice on the Kale

I don’t have a raises bed? How can they be put right into soil without the lawn overtaking them?
Dig a trench around the planting area 4-6 inches down. That cuts the roots of the grass off

What type and or brand of Pole Beans are you growing on these sticks? Thanks for the killer video. I subscribed to your channel
I am trying pole beans for the first time this year. I started finding spotted leaves at the bottom of the plants. I removed them, and sprayed with a copper fungicide. Now the entire plant is starting to get spots and there are more yellow, spotted leaves each day. There are lots of flowers and I got my first bean today. What should I do about these spots and yellow leaves?
Not sure what is causing it. If its a fungus the copper should work. But I use peppermint oil spray on my beans because they get spider mites and this seems to help. I just dont what the cause of your spots are

@@THERUSTEDGARDEN I subscribed to your channel last week. I have been following you, trying to learn how to,improve my garden. I have used peppermint spray on my beans late in the evening. How often can you spray it?
Nice! Good to know about the stakes too. Gotta try again at homedepot
Good Afternoon. I have a question. I'm using the Tidy cat Big containers. About 5 gals. I have some pole beans that need to be potted in their ' forever home' Can I plant Three in that container? It would save me space as that is one thing this season I am running out of, Joyfully I might add. :)
Glad you are having fun! You have to keep the moist all the time. As if a container dries completely it really hurts the plant. 2 or 3 beans should be fine. If they are 10 feet plus maybe 2. I would also try an experiment 2 in one 3 in the other. That is the best way to learn.Please visit The Rusted Garden Seed & Garden Shop: www.therustedgarden.com
My beans are growing taller than my 7 feet trellis? Should I cut the tip or leave it grow?
Let the grow long and bend them back down the trellis.

Hi, thanks for the video.
Do the Bush beans and pole beans require full sun or is 3 hrs sunlight sufficient? I plan to plant them this month but have a small space.
They need at least 6. Good luck. TRy a few plants to see but typically need more.

I wish I watched before transplanting my beans I took out the smaller beans but at least I got 4
Newbie gardener... How many seeds do you plant per pole? Some of what I've been reading suggests having 3 or 4 plants per pole. Just wondering what you did. Thanks!
Perfect cause I do 3!
Thanks for the great video about to put some poles in the ground right now.
Good luck
Lol that price is definitely a thing of the past. One piece of wood that long is 8bucks and change now.
It has changed for sure.

Hi! When did you plant the beans? I really want to try and plant some around now, but I don't want to bother if it's too late. We still have a little over 2 months of nice weather here in NH. Thanks in advance!
Late May and June and some more in July. You have time.
Thanks!
Help! My pole beams stakes are only 3’ high and are growing in a medium container pot..will they grow properly?
They should grow fine. But a smaller pot can constrain growth.

@@THERUSTEDGARDEN thanks
I have sprouted a few pole beans, I like the idea of the pole but I don't know how, do the beans wrap themselves around or do I need to put in some nails??
+MakinLifeEasier They will just naturally curl around the pole. Some chicken wire helps them get started on the bottom, then they just do their thing.
looks good Gary! Enjoy your videos. Do you grow grapes, if so, need help with pruning concords.
***** I have Concords. I need helping learning to prune them too. I am trying to find a good video but am having a hard time.
Gary Pilarchik I have two, 2 year old concord grapes, early spring one of them produced 6 clusters of grapes. I pruned off all but one, as I was wanting to give the energy to the root system. The one bunch did ripen and I got to eat them before the birds got them....yum! I too have been searching high and low how to prune these. If you come across anything, please post a video...thx!
How long before the vine wrap around the poles.
They take off about 10-14 days after germination

how deep of soil do I need for pole beans? I have enough lumber left over to do a 2x2 box, thanks for the videos they really do help
Hmmm I dont know. I would say at least 12 inches. But I havent grown any beans in containers.
what I've read seems to agree with that, I'd say at least 10"
great tip Gary ! gonna try pole beans next year, it is too late for me in zone 5 to grow pole beans :( how early can u set out bean plants ?
Huan Yu It would be close but I would give them a try. This way you will know for next year too.
I have an old broom handle. Would that work for pole beans too?
Yep but the would eventually grow past it

great video Gary. love direct to the point vids. can I ask why the chicken wire around the base of the pole beans? getting ready to plant pole beans for the first time so I thought I should ask. thank you! :-) Gabby
I think it was just there for trellising. Usually I extend it up the pole. Could also just be a scrap I left at bottom. No real reason,.
Usually the wire goes up the pole for trellising but that could be a scrap I left there
Can you do a video on the auntie wilder variety, since there isn't one out there it seems?
Hmmm Ill put it on my list but I would have find the seeds.

Just stakes.

@@THERUSTEDGARDEN Thanks
Can you just cut off the top at about 5 ft ?
Curl them down and train them down this way you get more production.
When do you plant these as seeds?
hi! what is the minimum depth of soil in a container for pole beans?
@Need2connect thank you.
I prefer pole beans too
when is good time to plant bush beans im in se texas
Something keeps eating my pole bean sprouts and the ones that made it are being chewed like crazy by something!!
I make a big dome of chicken wire and cover it. Rabbits eat them. For smaller insects dust them with insect dust of your choice.
Hi Gary what kind pole bean is that ?
That is Seychelles variety

I never use plastic buckets. As the plastic heats up in the Sun and leagues monel knock sense into your soil and the plants bring it up to the roots you're better off using galvanized metal anyting who cares stainless steel never plastic.
My father had six sections of land and unfortunately I live in apartment and I grow tomatoes pole beans in buckets on the balcony I don't like living in apartment but I have no other choice right now so I miss the land that we used to have. But as soon as I seen those plastic buckets I thought men something else to ruin our environment Atlee poisons into your soil. Other than that you got a nice Garden.

MITES - this is my main problem with bush beans.
I found peppermint oil really helps. I do sell that at my shop but see if you can get some and try it. I have videos discussing how I use it.
Please visit my seed and garden shop at www.therustedgarden.com. Thanks!
can I transfer pole beans
I am growing in cups and you can do that, just down let them go past 2 weeks in cups. If your are talking ground, probably, but you would have to dig really really wide root-ball. IF not the plant will be shocked. Best just dropping seed where you want them.
Water only the pot..keep water off the plants

you should call it the arsenic garden with all that treated wood
20 years ago yes. Not since then. Arsenic was banned decades ago. It is copper based treatment.
