Produces pods that can grow to be anywhere from one to three feet long. They require support from a fence or pole so that their vines can grow up and provide the room necessary for the pods to grow to their full size and weight. The plant can grow in a variety of climates, thriving in zones three to nine.
Start by sowing the seeds one to two inches deep, with a space of three to four inches between plants. The Yard Long can tolerate acidic soils and will require full sun. Water them often so that they don't wilt in the sun. Due to the the nature of a vine, a support, such as a trellis, will be needed. Pods grow long and slightly heavy, so they will need a strong support. The pods take two to three months to reach maturity, at which point they should be anywhere from one to three feet long. Once pods begin to reach this size, they should be harvested each day to encourage production on the vine.
