How much inoculant should I use to soak one pound of beans?

I soak peas before planting and add just enough inoculant to coat them just before planting. I don't soak beans. Just wet them, put them in a plastic bag and coat them. I am going to use row covers this year to keep the birds from feasting on my seeds.

I just ordered inoculant from Amazon and will plant my peas as soon as the ground is dry enough, Beans need warmer and drier conditions.

Thanks for your input. I was told if you use reemay it's OK to plant beans now. What do you think?

I've never soaked them. Instead, just before I'm ready to plant I get the beans wet then place them in a zip lock bag containing the inoculant, close the top. and shake the bag. The inoculant will then stick to the beans. Then just put the beans in the ground - enough inoculant will stick to each bean to provide good growth. If the inoculant is granular and doesn't stick easily, I grind it up.

I don't know, but the inoculant I used did not "soak" the seeds. It was more like a "dusting" such as powered sugar.

I got about 22 pounds of rice per bag in 5-gallon buckets. Maybe a little less with beans, since they leave more air space. If you remove most of the excess air before you seal it, the O2 absorber will leave a nice, oxygen-free partial vacuum.

The instructions say to mix 3 tbsp of tomato tone into the soil for new plantings. 2 cups per cubic foot for potted plants. I use it for potted plants mixing it with other nutritional amendments such as alfalfa meal, neem meal, crab meal, and kelp meal. My mix is per cubic ft. (7.5 gallons). 3 cups total of all above mentioned nutritional amendments along with a base of 1/3 peat, 1/3 perlite, 1/3 compost. Then I allow this mix to sit (cook) for 30days.

Use 1\2 to 1 pound for each 1000 sq ft, if your lawn is getting low traffic use the lesser amount, this product will raise the pH of soil more than some fertilizer which may cause a need for lime.

I would probably say 1 tbsp. That's what I use and that is more than enough.

Easy! Soak the beans overnight in enough water [I use filtered water, not tap] to cover them by about 5 inches. The beans soak up the water so you can't add too much!! I put the beans in the fridge but you can leave out overnight too - cover the pot. Next day, drain and rinse. Again, add water [filtered] to cover the beans by about 4 inches. If you want, add some salt to the water. Bring to a boil and cook. I cook the Palouse brand for about 45 minutes but others I cook for an hour. You just taste one and if it's right, the beans are done. Empty the water, rinse the beans if you want, and enjoy!

About half a cup, depending on the size of the pot. Pour on soil and mix around drip line.

Recommended is to mix 1 drop of GSE to every 2 oz of water. With my irrigation and netti pot I put 3 drops to full pot. You can Google it and there's many sites with recommended amount for varies condition.

The label says that there are 35 beans per serving and 45 servings per container so 35*45=1,575. Your need of 1,000 beans would be met.

I use one packet or 23/4 teaspoons of yeast for each one pound of mix. Sorry this is so late in coming but I just noticed the other answers didn't answer your question.

Enough to fill two regular commercial bean bags. I purchased the packing peanuts and one mega bag was more than enough to fill two of these.

I use 1 tablespoon but it depends on your individual taste. If you want it heavier, then use more, lighter then use less.

PJ......I don't recall there being any instructions but since I have been sprouting for years, it wasn't an issue. I use a tablespoon of alfalfa or clover or any other tiny seed per tray. Soak overnight for roughly 8 hours first, then rinse morning and evening. I use 1/4 cup of lentils for lentil sprouts and about the same for garbanzo bean sprouts. Experiment!

I use a bit less than 1/2 cup freshly ground beans. I dilute 1:1 after 12 to 24 hours.

The container says. "1 pound of powder + 9.5 fl. oz of water will make 1.25 pints of glue mixture. Used as a single spread, this should cover 40 sq. feet."

Package says for established fruit trees: "Use 1 cup (approx. 1/2 lb. ) for every inch of trunk diameter (measured at 4"-6" above the soil line). Work into the soil gently inside of the drip line. Water thoroughly." Apply every 3 months throughout the growing season. The package is 4 pounds (or about 8 cups).
