Author Content bevoreno Reno, NV October 22, 2009 07:02 PM Post #7198308 Can anyone out there help me with some advice on how to harvest Purple Hyacinth Bean? I have some pods developing, just don't know if I should let them dry on the plant, or what? Thank you for anyone's time!

For eating, you want to pull the pods off when you can feel the beans inside them. Otherwise, I'd let them dry on the vine. HTH! bevoreno Reno, NV October 22, 2009 11:13 PM Post #7199302 Nope, wasn't going to eat them- so you've answered my question and I'm very appreciative! I wanted to grow some more next season, so I'll let them dry on the vine. Regards! Pagancat (Sheryl) Gainesboro, TN (Zone 6b) October 23, 2009 08:41 AM Post #7199923 Best of luck.
