Set-and-forget. Improves soil while growing. 50 days to harvest.
Bush beans are the ultimate set-and-forget vegetable. Direct-sow seeds after the last frost, water occasionally, and in about 50 days you're picking handfuls of crispy, tender beans. No staking required for bush varieties. They fix nitrogen in the soil, actually improving your garden for next year's crops. Kids love picking them because they're easy to spot and snap right off the plant. Plant a second round in midsummer for a fall harvest.
