Can I Grow Green Beans in a Greenhouse?

“Can I grow green beans in a greenhouse?” Question from Angie of Fort Bragg, California

Answer: Absolutely. Green beans, whether pole beans or bush beans, can be grown in a greenhouse if given good soil, full sun, regular moisture, and temperatures that do not get too hot. Green beans grow best in temperatures between 50 and 85 degrees F. If you have only a small space in which to grow, I recommend bush beans. If you have a hoop greenhouse with a soil floor then you can grow pole beans in-ground.  I encourage you to watch the video about growing beans to learn more about raising these tasty summer vegetables.

Happy gardening,
