Lack of nutrients in the soil, and lack of ability to hold water- it drains too quickly.

Do mung beans grow better in rocky or sandy soil?

Sand.Pure sand has no nutritional value for the plants, so sand and plain peat moss mixture is better--mung beans like pH of 6; although many commercial pot soil mixtures have the right pH, they also have chemical fertilizers in them thus should be avoided. If you want to experiment with sand, try to place some river stones in your pot, and remember, mung beans are warm-water plants and most aren't cold tolerant. Good luck!Source(s):
