About This

• These straight, dark green pods average 5½ inches long, packed with delectable seeds and very uniform (which simplifies canning). The bite is full-bodied and succulent, a homegrown richness of flavor that you just can't get from supermarket beans.
• Beans are pretty easy to grow anyway—you really can't go wrong—but Cabot has taken their performance to a whole other level.
• e call Cabot the Stoop-free Bean because most of the pods set at the top of the plant, so you don't have to go bending and crawling around trying to find those hidden low-lying beans. You might think this isn't very important, but if you grow a lot of beans, you'll be surprised by how much time (and back pain) you save with Cabot.
• For best harvest, succession-plant Cabot every 3 weeks or so from early spring till late summer (avoiding the worst summer heat in warm areas). Hardier than pole beans, bush snaps can be direct sown after all danger of frost.
• You'll want to wait until the soil warms up in spring to sow the seeds. Space them about 2 to 4 inches apart, pushing the seeds an inch or so deep into the soil. You should see the sprouts in 1 to 2 weeks. If you are growing both bush and pole beans, expect the bush beans to mature a few weeks ahead of their pole cousins.
