Pinto Bush Bean – The Essential High-Protein Staple for the Self-Sufficient Pantry
The Pinto Bean is perhaps the most recognized and relied-upon bean in the world, and for good reason. A cornerstone of Latin American cuisine and a must-have for hearty chilis and refried beans, this heirloom variety is a protein powerhouse. At The Seed Guy, we believe every survival or homestead garden needs a dependable dry bean, and the Pinto Bush Bean is the perfect candidate. It produces heavy yields of beautiful, mottled beige and brown beans on compact plants that don't require any trellising.
These beans are incredibly versatile; they can be harvested young and eaten as a green snap bean, but they truly shine when allowed to mature and dry on the vine. Any bean that can go from seed to table while standing up to the heat is a gardener's dream, and the Pinto is famously tough and heat-tolerant. Once dried, these beans have an incredible shelf life, providing your family with a homegrown source of fiber and nutrients all winter long.

Pinto Bush Bean Planting Instructions:
1. Timing: Pinto beans love the warmth. Plant in full sun once the soil is warm and all danger of frost has passed.
2. Sowing: Sow seeds 1 inch deep and space them 3-4 inches apart. Since these are bush beans, they will grow into sturdy, self-supporting plants.
3. Care: Provide steady water while the plants are flowering and developing pods. Once the pods begin to dry and turn brown, you can reduce watering to help the drying process.
4. Harvesting: For dry beans, leave the pods on the plant until they are brown and brittle, and the beans inside are hard. Harvest before any heavy fall rains to prevent spoilage.
5. Pests & Disease: Keep an eye out for Bean Beetles and Aphids. Ensure good spacing between plants to allow for airflow, which helps prevent bean rust and other fungal issues.
Botanical Name: Phaseolus vulgaris
