Pole beans should be planted after the last frost date in your area when soil temperatures reach at least 60°F (15°C). Typically, this occurs in late spring. Ensure the risk of frost has passed, as young bean plants are sensitive to cold temperatures. Planting them in well-drained soil with plenty of sunlight will encourage healthy growth.

How tall does a bean plant get?
There are two types of bean plants: bush beans and pole beans. Bush beans grow 18-30" high, start producing fruit earlier, and stop producing fruit sooner than pole beans. Pole beans grow 6-12' high, depending on the variety, and need a trellis or something to climb on for support. Pole beans start producing later but produce more beans over the season than bush beans.
Do you soak pole beans?
Soaking pole beans before planting is not necessary, but it can help speed up germination. If you choose to soak them, do so for about 4-6 hours in lukewarm water. This can help soften the seed coat and promote quicker sprouting once planted. However, many gardeners successfully plant pole beans without soaking.

Pole beans generally do not need to be cut when they become too tall, as they can continue to grow and produce beans. However, if they are excessively tall and becoming unwieldy, you can trim the top to encourage bushier growth and better airflow. This can also help prevent damage from wind or heavy rain. Just be careful not to remove too many leaves, as they are essential for photosynthesis and overall plant health.
How is a tepee for pole beans made?
Take 3-6 long sticks, maybe 8' long. Tie them together at the top. Stick the ends in the earth in a big circle. Plant several beans around the bottom of each pole. The beans will grow up the pole (you may need to encourage them to wrap around the pole at first). If you don't space the poles quite evenly but leave a gap or entrance, when the beans have grown up in midsummer a child can crawl inside and be cool even on a hot day.
