Great tips! Im more of a shucker myself as well haha! I have a growbag with pinto beans that ended up being cimbing beans. They are reaching up over my house although its a smaller house its still really cool! I planted about 15 or 16 beans with a buildable vegatable cage and they went nuts this summer. Food security is a hugely underlooked topic and thats why I started a garden at home. I know where the food came from which is very rewarding. Thanks so much for what you do and much love to you and yours!
My mom's been asking me to grow pinto beans, so I found your video. I totally agree with things only getting rougher. That's why I'm trying to grow as much as I possibly can for my parents and I. Plus, not trusting the cleanliness of the food from the stores lol. If I can grow it, I'm gonna give it a go! Thanks for the great tips! Off to Etsy to find me some pinto beans, since my supplier is OOS LOL. God Bless!
Thanks a lot for the video. This is my first time planting beans and had no clue about when or how to harvest them . You are right , we’re living in very uncertain times and even though we are to trust in the Lord, we still have the responsibility to provide for our families and help others if we can. God bless you!
Great information and I’ve been thinking about planting pintos. Now I know it’s pretty easy to do and look forward to growing my own for my family and won’t need to rely on the stores to have them. Thank you for the great content!
1:40 my dude, Pinto beans are GREAT when eaten green!! Especially if you enjoy the taste of edamame. Requires you to go out and check every day, but I love my little bean pod snacks. I keep the beans for myself and share the pod shells with my dogs :)
My husband planted pinto beans(my fav) this year and I found your video of when to harvest. He actually planted them with our corn so they would have something to climb on. I thought that was a very good idea! Tha ks for the tips!!
Just stumbled across your channel while attempting to learn how to grow Pintos. As you described the winnowing process my mind went to the Bible, then you mentioned, "student of the Bible..." Amen! You have a new Subscriber; thank you for the information. Have a Blessed Day!
New subscriber here I planted about a two dozen of the pintos I soaked for dinner (from a bag at store) along my fence line, and they all came up, almost a foot tall just a few weeks in. From what I can Google, I'll have to wait and see if I got bush or pole pintos lol. I always do Henderson lima beans, my favorite, so will be interesting to see what comes of these!
Thats so cool, I hope you got a good return for your effort. I am going to try this next spring with expensive store bought Anasazi beans. You would think they would taste like a pintos but they have a richer bold flavor and makes some of the best beans and ham hocks I've ever had. I must confess I'm addicted to them. 😊
Thank you. We have an entire playlist on preservation here: ruclips.net/p/PLe8gvCbPFkezkUlLi9Qiqh2F-Ar4Y5Vbg. We have frozen them, canned them, and most recently freeze dried them which keeps them for 25 years.
I grow in containers at my apartment out front and always include beans! Definitely falls in importance with potatoes, onions, garlic, tomatoes. Carrots, lettuce. and herbs in my opinion
Great video, thanks. Now how do we start the dried beans for next years crop? I tried to do this a couple of times with no luck. The beans just got mushy in the soil and died.
You're welcome. They need to be sufficiently dry before planting them back in the ground. Maybe put them in a dehydrator for an hour at a low temp. I've never had an issue with them.
I had the same thing happen I think I planted them indoors, but the room was too cold, ( April?), and they just turned to mush So, apparently the soil has to be warm enough to sprout them.
I was curious a few months ago and planted store bought GOYA beans to see how they'd grow. they are currently growing up a trellis and are now taller than me! We get a lot of rain here and I'm concerned that they'll never dry out although there are tons of pods that appear to be ready. I just don't think they're going to get to the drying stage with all this rain. Can I pick individual pods and allow them to dry?
Yes, you can pick the individual pods but they need to be somewhat brown. If they are still green, they won't dry properly. Oddly enough, you can eat pintos green. I have a friend who does that. Unfortunately the only way to store green pintos is to freeze them.
Hi I have a black bean plant and there are a lot of bean pods growing. A large been pod recently turned dry and had a light brown colour. When i opened the bean pod up, i saw that there were just 3 beans. They did not look shiny and big instead they looked small, dry and crooked. Also, almost all of my bean leaves are turning white and the surface of my soil dries to quickly. should i throw the plant away and start over? Thank you for the help
Since I don't know your growing conditions or climate, it is hard for me to say. I would say that some pods dry differently than others and at a different rate causing some beans to shrivel up. That's normal.
@@CountryLivingExperience i live on a sunny island and i am growing my bean plant in a pot. Do you have an email adress so i can send you the pictures of my bean plant?
I've never grown beans indoors before. As far as colder climates, you just have a smaller window of time to grow. I used to live in Michigan and my Dad was an avid gardener. He was very successful. It is all about timing.
How many plants you will need to make at least 1 kg of dry beans? I live in a city so I don't have a big place, but I can do this in my terrace with pots
We produced about 1kg this season. It took 4 - 25ft long rows to do that. Sorry to say, pots will not work for a large amount of dry beans. It would be better for you to buy and store them, then dedicate your pots for other vegetables.
So how do beans do in frost? I have some dry beans that are still growing and the temps are getting cooler, not sure if they will dry out (we dry ours on the vine) before first fall frost. I haven't run into this before and have no experience. Also wondering the same for the late corn in the garden. We had lack of rain issues so things got a late start. So the corn are in various stages now, some have cobs formed but not ready, others are still in silk , and a few just getting ready to silk, and some have been harvested. Usually doesn't frost until October here but have never had things at this stage this late in the season.
Hi. I just found your channel. Thank you for sharing this. We have grown green bean's and sugar snaps but never dried bean's or pinto beans. With grocery prices being as they are, we are growing all we can. I have a question about pinto or dry bean's, do they produce throughout the entire growing season or do they do like other bush green beans , after a month they are about done? We are in zone 7A/ Va so it's pretty humid here with occasional hurricanes blowing through. Thanks so much. I am looking forward to your channel
@@CountryLivingExperience That's awesome. Thank you so much. I appreciate it. They actually sound like an easier plant to grow. I'm looking forward to it
First year growing dry beans. I didn’t know about leaving them out in the moisture, and a bunch of them when I brought them in had dried mold spots on the shells. The beans inside looked fine. Do I need to toss the beans or are they OK? The shells were very dry.
I harvested my beans too early when they were green. If I store them or dry them will they mature into normal pinto beans? If not is there something I can do not to waste my harvest?
I have a lot of green beans still on the vine, just green pole beans and they are too mature to harvest. Can I dry the beans inside and use those? They look like a white been inside
I'm curious if anyone has experience with black mildew on dry bean husks. I got a wonderful crop of dry beans early in the summer. But when it was time to pick my second crop, the weather got really humid here in Florida and most of my dry bean pods developed black mildew. The mildew does not appear to be on the insides of the husks or on the beans themselves. It's just on the outsides of the husks. Are they safe to eat?
After growing tomatoe plants I can't eat a tomatoe from the grocery store anymore. Is there a taste difference between homegrown and store bought pinto beans?
What kind of bean is a "pinto" bean ??? Ive googled it, ask all my garden friends and not a pinto bean seed to be heard of, best answer was they thought it was a type of bush bean, aome said Kentucky wonder. just thought Id ask.

So I'm eating pinto beans as I should and I was thinking to myself how do they grow these in nature I mean I'm Mexican I eat beans by the crops 🤣
Lol. Well now you can grow your own.
Thanks for the video. Will the leftover chaff float to the top of the water when you soak your beans possibly? It's worth a try.
You're welcome. It will probably float to the top when you soak them. I usually don't have hardly any chaff though.
I grow in containers at my apartment out front and always include beans! Definitely falls in importance with potatoes, onions, garlic, tomatoes. Carrots, lettuce. and herbs in my opinion
The beans that haven’t dried can be harvested and cooked at that stage, they are very tasty. You can also boil them and freeze them for future use.
Cool

@@CountryLivingExperience Thank you
Thanks for the video. Quick question. Will the bean plants produce throughout the season, or is it just a single harvest?
You’re welcome. They will produce throughout the season but for pintos you need to let them dry partially on the plant.

That is normal. They will be fine.
@@CountryLivingExperience thank you!!
I planted horticulture beans for the first time and the pods have turns black. But the bean it’s self looks good are they still good to eat?
I am not familiar with what a horticulture bean is. If the bean looks ok and has no mold, then it should be ok to eat.
I harvested my beans too early when they were green. If I store them or dry them will they mature into normal pinto beans? If not is there something I can do not to waste my harvest?
I’ve never done that so I am not sure. Sorry.
Do you pick the beans when there pods are dry?
Yes. We covered that in the video.
MYa 🕊️ 2022💙👣
Is there a way to dry/ripen the green pods if you had to cut them prematurely? I live in New England and it’s been an insanely rainy summer
Not that I really know of. They beans have to mature inside and get to a certain stage for drying.
@@CountryLivingExperience oh so they have to be in the pod and still attached to the plant, they won’t ripen in the pod detached like a tomato right?
@@taylormayde2pt0 Correct
Maybe a silly question but should you water bean plants?
Of course
I have a lot of green beans still on the vine, just green pole beans and they are too mature to harvest. Can I dry the beans inside and use those? They look like a white been inside
Absolutely!
Pinto beans any stage is great including green bean stage
Cool. I have never eaten them in the green stage. I'll have to try that.
Should I stop watering at some point??? I water with drip line so the water isn't wetting the plant.
It should be ok to keep watering if it’s on a drip line. (I like your channel name by the way.)
Do beans climb or are they like a bush?
There are two different kinds. Climbing and bush
When do you stop irritation of your dry beans to let them dry out?
They will naturally die off and dry no matter how much water is applied.
Canned beans are also food security...lol
Until your cans run out.

I get that a bit here in Texas too. It is always on the outside and should not be harmful.
@@CountryLivingExperience Thanks!
After growing tomatoe plants I can't eat a tomatoe from the grocery store anymore. Is there a taste difference between homegrown and store bought pinto beans?
No taste difference that I can tell. They are probably higher in nutrients though.
Does the pea pod need to be attached to the plant while it is drying? What happens if it were prematurely removed to dry in a drier location?
I have tried both and they dry faster and more thoroughly if left on the vine.
@@CountryLivingExperience Ok thanks!
