how to grow from bean seeds
I learned that I need to allow the beans to age in the pods for about a week, then dehydrate them by leaving the seeds in the open for a couple of days before soaking them and then planting them in the soil. This will allow more success rate in their germination. If I plant the beans straight from the pod, most of the beans tend to rot away in the moist and wet medium.
Grow from Cuttings
Method :
Select a healthy stem with a growing tip.
Make a slant cut about 1 cm. below a leaf node.
Strip all the leaves away from the stem and leave about 2 to 3 leaves at the growing tip.
Immerse the stem in water and watch the roots grow in about a week's time.
Change the water every two days to prevent mosquito breeding.
