Beans are another vegetable easily grown in containers. Beans are tasty, easy to grow, and they freeze well, too. Here are a few recommendations if you decide to grow your own:

1. You will need a container about twelve inches wide. If you are growing bush beans, the container depth should be six to seven inches, whereas pole beans require a depth closer to eight or nine inches.

2. With several varieties, you will need to provide a trellis for the plant to grow up on to support the weight of the plant.

3. Consider using pasteurized soil (soil that has been baked in the oven), mix it with compost, and add mulch to help retain the soil’s moisture.

4. Make sure you place your containers in a warm or brightly lit location but avoid direct sunlight.

5. You may need to water the beans frequently to keep the soil moist, too.

6. You can plant your seedlings in the spring once the soil has warmed up.

7. When the pods are fully elongated and are crisp and firm, it is time to harvest them. When they reach maturity, be sure to harvest them every day. Frequent harvesting will encourage more beans to be produced from your plant.
