  • 1 pack Green bean seeds
  • 1 bag Potting soil
  • Water as needed

  • Gardening trowel

Method
 

Growing Steps
  1. Prepare your planting area by filling a pot or container with potting soil, ensuring adequate drainage.
  2. Plant the green bean seeds according to package directions, typically about an inch deep and a few inches apart.
  3. Plant garlic cloves around the green bean seeds, about 2-3 inches deep, with the pointy side up.
  4. Water the soil thoroughly after planting, and keep it consistently moist but not waterlogged for the next 7 days.
  5. Place the container in a sunny spot, ensuring the plants receive at least 6 hours of sunlight daily.
  6. Monitor the growth daily; you should see sprouts emerging within 3-5 days, and by day 7, you'll have young garlic green bean plants.

Notes

Ensure your potting soil is well-draining to prevent root rot. You can use a spray bottle to keep the soil moist without overwatering. For a continuous harvest, consider staggered planting every few weeks.
