AnnualJacob's Cattle bean, also known as Trout or Appaloosa bean, is a striking heirloom variety with a distinctive maroon and white mottled pattern. This bush bean matures in about 90-100 days and is prized for its hearty, rich flavor and creamy texture. Ideal for soups, stews, and baked beans, it retains its shape well during cooking. Jacob's Cattle beans thrive in well-drained soil and full sun, with plants reaching about 18-24 inches in height. These beans are not only delicious but also nutritious, high in protein, fiber, and essential minerals, making them a valuable addition to any garden.
Bought some more beans for my garden. These are great beans for direct sowing.
This bean variety was very prolific. I love to grow different dry bean varieties for mixed bean soups. This for sure was a tasty one and it holds up well to long cooking. Of course it's also very beautiful.
Excellent specimen! Arrived quickly and packaged very well. 100%sprouted!
Every seed I planted germinated so I ordered more! Plants are thriving in full sun to mostly sunny, waiting to see how much I can harvest. Great buy! Zone 7B and unseasonably hot and dry where we live in TN this year.
I grew these in Oklahoma zone 7. I usually struggle growing beans a little bit. I always save seeds and grow them a second year before I decide if they will do well in my area. These beans did well the first year. They produced many long pods with several dry beans in each. I'm excited to see how much better they will do next year!

We have nice fertile soil in our greenhouse and able to control those pesty little flea beetles that can decimate eggplants foliage. I've been keeping them under control with DE and my eggplants are massive in size, about 3-4 feet tall with 1 foot lower leaves.
The eggplants fruit are developing nicely, nearly doubling in size daily. There are plenty of blossoms too. We're expecting that we won't need to grow more for a few years, we're planning on freeze drying most if them.
I purchased several packs of seeds from MiGardener during the semi annual sale, and they did not disappoint! Nearly 100 percent germination rate on all seeds I've planted. The only thing I haven't been able to germinate is lemon grass, which I'm learning may 1 take a very long time to germinate in general and 2 need bottom heat to help them sprout. Even without being on sale 2 bucks a seed pack for the amount they give (very generous compared to other companies, I might add) is a crazy good deal. If you have been on the fence, I encourage you to give MiGardener seeds a try! Thank you Luke and team, and Happy Gardening to all!
I'm not a seasoned gardener, so I don't necessarily know what's normal or not, but out of all the seeds I planted (got about a dozen different herbs and greens from MIgardener), the fenugreek was the quickest to sprout, had the highest germination rate, and the largest sprouting leaves. I'm pretty excited to watch them grow into beautiful plants.
Gardening for over 40 years. The Trifecta very impressed has all the elements I want in a fertilizer. Next year I will buy the largest amount.
Second squash to produce for me. Picked young and the skin is very thin/easily bruises. Roasted first batch and they were a delicious mild flavor! Very soft but the roasting gave a nice crust on them. 2nd batch mixed in a stir fry and it overcooked very easily and was mushy. I like how prolific this plant is and the mild taste. Just need to make sure not to overcook. Well definitely grow again.
