Ensure the compost remains moist at all times, but not saturated.Hardening Off / Planting OutGradually accustom young plants to outdoor conditions for 2–3 weeks before planting out from late May onwards, when the danger of frost has passed. Provide support with canes, either in double rows sloping inwards with 15 cm between canes, in a 'wigwam' structure, or in a container at least 75 cm in diameter. Plants will climb and twine naturally.Sow OutdoorsSow direct, 5 cm deep, into the required harvest position next to a cane support or in a large container once the danger of frost has passed.AftercareRunner beans require plenty of water to produce a good crop. Water generously in dry spells. When plants are in full flower, an occasional mid-day spraying with a fine hose encourages flower set and bean production. They thrive in a sunny position sheltered from cold winds and are generally disease and trouble-free.AdviceSoil should be well-manured prior to planting.
