Sow 1\" deep, 4–6\" apart, in rows 18–36\" apart or use wide-bed style planting, giving each plant 1 sq.ft. of space. Where winter lows stay above 10°F (-12°C) sow in August through September. Inoculants can increase yields.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDISEASES AND PESTS:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe primary disorder responsible for leaf and pod blackening and spotting is a virus spread by aphids.
