Pole Beans Not Blooming

Question

I have beautiful bushes of pole beans, but not a bloom on any of them. It has been quite hot (95-100), with no rain in the forecast — 100 degrees each day. Will a bloom set help, or should I just plow them under?

Answer 1

Your soil may need phosphorus. Phosphorus helps with flower and fruit production, and without it you will see a reduction in flowers and fruit. This article has more information:

The high temps could also be contributing to this.
