After seven days of seed incubation, it’s time to prepare the growing containers. Use a mixture of 60% soil, 20% vermicompost, and 20% rice husks in recycled buckets or any other suitable container. This compost mix will provide the essential nutrients for your long bean plants to flourish.
Step 4: Plant Your Seedlings
To further enhance the growth of your long bean plants, incorporate Trichoderma into the compost mix. This naturally occurring fungus will help promote healthy root development. Plant the prepared long bean seedlings and watch them thrive!
Step 5: Create a Support System
Long beans are climbers, so they will need something to grab onto as they grow. Place a 5-feet (1.5 meters) long wooden stick in each bucket. Then, use smaller sticks to create a grid-like support system that allows the plants to climb and reach for the sky!
