Sindh Gawar
A prolific producer of the tender, light green bean known as Gawar. This plant can grow up to 4 feet tall and may require staking. Harvesting often will encourage the production of more beans. Gawar is typically cooked with onions and spices in South Asia. The dried bean is crushed and used as the primary ingredient in Guar Gum.
Gawar thrives in warm temperatures. The plant can be slow growing at first. It’s best to plant when the temperatures are steadily warm (night time temps steadily above 50 degrees). They are sensitive to transplant shock so take extra care if starting indoors and planting outside. It's possible to direct sow the seeds but wait until the nighttime temperatures are above 50 degrees before seeding outside.
Provide consistant irrigation when the plants are first planted to allow the roots to develop. Once plants are larger, they can handle less frequent waterings. Avoid watering leaves and provide a stake if plants begin falling over.
Our seeds were originally gifted to us from one of our customers who brought them back from the Sindh province of Pakistan. This is our first year stewarding this variety on our farm.
20 seeds per packet.
