  • If you have a really big pot, yes, are you doing bush beans or pole beans?

    I have done it, but you'll only be able to put 2-3 plants per pot. The larger the pot the better.

    Yes, but you will need something for them to climb. Even bush beans need a little support help in a pot.

    Only if it is a huge pot. Like a pot that is usually used for flowers, or a crock that is used for flowers. Be sure to put stones in the bottom, then soil, and then the seeds. This will give them drainage, and lots of room to grow. Best wishes, Judy.

    12 inches deep and 14 wide?

    OK, this is fine, just plant, with stones in the bottom, then mulch, and good black dirt, then the plant. Continue to put the soil within the pot, and then water lightly when done. If you get done in the evening, water lightly, if you finish in the morn., then water it before 11:00 AM, and I would keep it in a slightly sunny/shaded area, until it gets used to being outside in the sunshine. Not all plants can take the heat of the sun, so watch this carefully, if it seems to wilt, then try to keep it on the east side of the porch, and then it will cool off for the afternoon part of the day. Best wishes, Judy.
