Growing Snake Beans - A Comprehensive Guide

- Choose the Right Location:
Select a sunny spot in your backyard that receives at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day. Snake beans thrive in full sun.
- Planting:
You can either sow snake bean seeds directly into the soil or start them indoors and transplant when they are a few inches tall.
If planting seeds directly, sow them about 1 inch deep and 4-6 inches apart in rows that are spaced 2-3 feet apart.
If transplanting seedlings, space them 4-6 inches apart in rows.
For snake beans, you can use a balanced, slow-release fertilizer or organic compost. Here are some options:
- Organic Compost:
Compost is an excellent natural fertilizer. You can amend the soil with well-rotted compost before planting snake beans.
- All-Purpose Granular Fertilizer:
Look for a balanced, slow-release granular fertilizer with equal or near-equal amounts of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K). For example, a 10-10-10 or 14-14-14 fertilizer is suitable.
- Liquid Fertilizer:
You can also use liquid fertilizers formulated for vegetables or beans. Dilute and apply them according to the manufacturer's instructions.
When applying fertilizer, it's essential not to over-fertilize, as excessive nutrients can harm the plants. Follow the recommended application rates on the fertilizer packaging, and avoid direct contact between the fertilizer and the plant stems or leaves. Proper fertilization can help ensure healthy growth and a bountiful harvest of snake beans.

What the robot says is correct, but in the video the beans were picked too late, and the egg was overcooked by cooking it before adding the beans.
Snake beans are one of the best things to plant in very hot regions, which pretty soon will mean a lot more regions than now.
