After a few days your bean should start to sprout roots. This is called germination. Then, the bean will start to grow a stem too. The stem should grow upwards, as it looks for the light. After about ten days your bean seed should have grown a bigger stem and some leaves. It is now a little bean plant. To make sure it keeps growing and stays healthy, carefully take it out of the jar and plant it in a large pot with some soil. You can keep you pot inside during the winter, or outside during the summer.
I F you want to get your vegetable garden off to a fast start, you need to plant your seeds in soil that's warm enough to ensure good germination. For each type of seed â beans, carrots, lettuce â there is a range of temperatures at which that particular type of seed will germinate (see the chart at right). Beans, for example, will only germinate if the soil temperature is above 60 degrees F and no warmer than 95 degrees F. There is also an optimum temperature at which seeds germinate most readily. In the case of beans, that optimum germination temperature is 80 degrees F. In a perfect world, you would wait for the soil in your garden to be 80 degrees F before planting your beans.
