Harvesting Your Garden
H
arvest Your Green Beans
After approximately 6 weeks you can begin harvesting your
green beans.
A green bean is ready for picking
when it is about 3-4 inches in length.
Pick green beans gently with
your fingers:
• Hold the green bean loosely in
your palm.
• Grasp the stem (slightly above the
green bean) between thumb and
pointer finger.
• Snap the stem between fingers.
You can also use scissors to
harvest your green beans.
If your green bean breaks during
harvesting, take a moment to go back
and
snap the rest of it off. This will help
keep your plant productive and healthy.
Approximate length – 4”
