Soak Beans

[rxkeith]

i don't soak my beans.

i mighta read, that if you soak them, only do it for two to four hours,
something like that. i direct seeded some provider beans that came into
my possession from someone local that was no longer gardening. i have
a one pound package of seeds, several years old. i can't say every seed
came up, but a whole bunch did. old, old beans might be good to soak, and
keep moist till you see a tail, to speed things up, and eliminate the need to replant.
watch out for mold development on any beans you soak. mold may be good on cheese,
but not beans.
