Beans (Pole)
Yard Long Noodle King
| 32 | 3" | 5" x 1' 1" | Tender-crisp and flavorful. Easy to grow and yields earlier than other Yard Long varieties with more weather flexibility. Pods easily reach 12-18 inches.
Days to Germinate: 5-10
Days to Harvest: 65-75
If the first sowing comes up unevenly, resow right away. Plant 4-6 seeds about 4" from the pole; thin seedlings to best 3 plants per pole.
For best yields, pick every 2-3 days. Harvest when still pencil thin, the pods snap when bent & before the seeds have filled out inside.
Chop into 2-3" pieces & quickly stir-fry or saute. Deep-fry tempura style.
