Beans are not sown for seedlings. They are usually planted directly into open ground.
To avoid complications, you just need to choose a favorable day for sowing.
Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", an agronomist and landscape designer, told when to sow beans in the ground and how to do it correctly.
Beans will yield a good harvest even if grown without seedlings. The only difference is in the harvesting time.
