Sow seeds about 25 mm (1 inch) deep in fertile, well-drained soil, spaced approximately 10–15 cm (4–6 inches) apart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose a location with full sun and rich, amended soil. Because Kentucky Wonder is a pole variety, provide a sturdy trellis, netting, or pole structure early in the season to support the vigorous climbing vines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWater consistently and evenly, keeping the soil moist during germination and flowering. Avoid overhead watering when possible to reduce fungal issues, and water at the base of the plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHarvest pods regularly when they reach full size but remain tender and crisp to encourage the vines to continue producing throughout the season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGrowing Pole Beans in Canada\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKentucky Wonder pole beans thrive in the warm summer months characteristic of Canadian climates.
