Black Turtle Beans, commonly known as "Black Beans" are small, oval-shaped beans with a shiny, black skin and measuring about 1/4-inch in length. Black beans are rich and hearty and an essential addition to your pantry for nutritious and flavorful meals. Known for their dense, meaty texture and rich, earthy flavor, they are a staple in many Latin American and Caribbean cuisines. In Cuban cuisine, Black Turtle Beans are famously used in "Frijoles Negros," a traditional black bean soup that is a cornerstone of the country's culinary heritage. Black Turtle Beans have been a dietary staple for over 7,000 years, dating back to ancient Mesoamerican civilizations. Black Turtle Beans are rich in anthocyanins, the same antioxidants found in blueberries, giving them their distinctive black color and numerous health benefits. Perfect for a variety of dishes, Black Turtle Beans can be used in soups, stews, salads, and as a protein and fiber-rich side dish.

Planting Instructions:

Soil Preparation:

Choose an area with heavy, well-draining soil that receives at least 6 hours of sunlight each day. Remove weeds, large rocks, and litter from the planting area. Leave small weeds and dead grass, they will enrich the soil when turned under. Spade or till the soil 8-12 inches deep. Loosening the soil will help the plant establish strong roots.

Plants grow best in soil with lots of organic matter. You may optionally add fertilizer or organic material such as compost, leaves, or rotted hay to mix into the soil at this point. For small gardens, scatter 2-3 tablespoons of a low-nitrogen fertilizer evenly and work into the top 2-3 inches of soil for each hill or 2 foot by 2 foot planting area. For larger gardens, scatter 2-3 pounds of a low-nitrogen fertilizer for each 100 square feet of planting area. Work fertilizer or organic material into the soil and leave the surface smooth.

Form rows of soil beds 4-6 inches high and at least 18 inches apart. This formation of ridges will help with drainage.

Planting:

Black Turtle beans grow best in temperatures between 65F-85F. Direct-sowing is recommended. Plant beans in the spring after all danger of frost has passed and the soil temperature reaches at least 60F. For fall crops, direct sow seeds outdoors 7-9 weeks before the first frost. To plant, make holes 1 inch deep and spaced 4 inches apart down the rows of raised beds. Plant 1 seed per hole. If choosing to thin to the strongest plant, plant 2-3 seeds per hole, determine the strongest and healthiest plant, then remove all other plants, narrowing to a single plant per hole. Cover seeds thinly with soil and water after planting.



Planting Depth: 1 inch
Within-Row Spacing: 4 inches
Between-Row Spacing: 18-24 inches


Care During the Season:

Watering: Water the plants deeply, soaking the soil to a depth of 6-8 inches, once a week. If there is no rainfall, water 2-3 times a week. Water especially during flowering and pod formation. Sandy soils may need to be watered more often than heavy clay soils. Mulching around plants can help retain moisture.

Weeding: Keeping plants weed-free improves production. If plowing or hoeing, do not dig deeper than 1 inch to prevent from cutting the feeder roots.

Fertilizing: Once plants start forming pods, you may optionally apply 2 tablespoons of a low-nitrogen fertilizer around each hole, or 1-2 pounds per 100 square feet, without letting the fertilizer touch the plants. Water plants after fertilizing.

Insecticides: Insecticides may be used to protect plants. Bt-based insecticides and sulfur are organic options that can be used for prevention. Sulfur also has fungicidal properties and helps in controlling many diseases. Before using a pesticide, read the label and follow cautions, warnings and directions.

Diseases: If spots or mold appear, treat plants with an approved fungicide. Neem oil, sulfur, and other fungicides may be used. When using fungicides always follow label directions.

Harvesting:

Black Turtle beans are ready for harvest 90 to 120 days after planting when the pods have turned a brown or yellow color and feel dry to the touch. To ensure the beans are fully mature, check that the pods are brittle and the beans inside rattle when shaken. If rain is expected, it is best to pull the plants and hang them upside down in a warm, dry location to continue drying. After the beans have fully dried, remove the pods by hand or with a gentle thump, and then shell the beans. Once harvested, store the dried black turtle beans in a cool, dry, and airtight container.

Best Dog Bone
Flavor Name: Beef, Size: Large
This is one of the best bones I've seen and I have always lived with dogs. The shape makes it so ergonomic for the dog, both of mine hold the bone down with both paws then chew the part standing up. One of my dogs was able to enjoy this while wearing a cone after surgery, supporting her natural behavior and keeping her busy. These are great for our 11 month old puppy because he was struggling to figure out how to brace the bone without it rubbing his paws, so was bracing on furniture and getting in trouble. Now he can hold the T part easily and doesn't need to use other objects he shouldn't chew by accident. They are durable, too. I got these about 2 months ago and they are barely worn with a rotty/pit/Shepard mix male puppy. If you know dogs, you know that means this is a solid durable bone! I will for sure keep these on hand for years as they are a preferred chew in my house!

Doggy Delight
Flavor Name: Beef, Size: Medium
Ever felt like your dog’s chew toys are on the fritz, ending up shredded like yesterday’s sandwich? The SPOT Bam-bones PLUS T Bone is here to save the day, offering a durable and tasty solution for aggressive chewers and teething puppies alike. These bamboo fiber and nylon chews are like the super-tough treats your dog dreams of, providing hours of gnawing joy without the splintering mess. My bulldog, who treats his chew toys like they’re part of a survival game, has found his perfect match in these T Bones. The beef flavor is irresistible, making them a favorite among picky pups and ensuring they stay engaged without turning into edible confetti. The 6-inch size is perfect for keeping his jaws busy without overwhelming his mouth – a win-win for both of us. The non-splintering design is a blessing, preventing any painful encounters with broken chews and keeping our home safe from unexpected trips to the vet. Plus, the durable construction means these chews last longer than my patience during a doggy tantrum – and that’s saying something! However, the T Bones can sometimes feel like they’re too tough, requiring a bit of extra chewing to fully enjoy – turning every chew session into a mini workout for your dog’s jaws. Additionally, the price point is slightly higher than standard chews, but the durability and quality make it worth every penny. Overall, the SPOT Bam-bones PLUS T Bone is a fantastic choice for dog owners looking to provide their pets with a long-lasting and enjoyable chew experience. It’s tough, tasty, and built to withstand even the most enthusiastic chewers. A solid 5-star rating for its durability and flavor, with a tiny star lost to its occasional toughness challenges.

The Ultimate Solution for Power Chewers!
Flavor Name: Beef, Size: Medium
I have a Pitbull mix who can usually destroy "tough" toys in minutes, but the Bam-Bones Plus is a total game-changer. The bamboo and nylon blend is incredibly dense; it satisfies that natural urge to chew without splintering like real wood or falling apart like rubber. It wears down slowly and safely, giving my dog weeks of use rather than minutes. ​Smart, Functional Design ​The T-bone shape is brilliant because of the "paw-grip" base—it makes it so easy for my dog to hold it steady while she works on it. I’ve also noticed her teeth looking much cleaner since we started using this, as the raised textures act like a natural toothbrush. Plus, the infused beef scent keeps her interested much longer than a plain nylon bone ever could. ​Final Verdict ​This is a must-have for any owner of a large or aggressive chewer. It’s safe, long-lasting, and provides excellent mental stimulation.

Fantastic Durable Chew Toy That My Dog Loves!
Flavor Name: Beef, Size: Medium
Absolutely thrilled with this dog chew toy! It’s extremely tough and durable — perfect for aggressive chewers and keeps my pup entertained for a long time. The bamboo fiber and nylon design feels sturdy yet gentle on the teeth, and it even helps with dental hygiene by massaging gums while he chews. My dog goes crazy for this bone and it lasts way longer than other chew toys we’ve tried. Great quality and great value — highly recommend for any dog
