Bean Root Rot

Target Crops: Beans, Potatoes, Vegetables & Flowers.

Damage

When you pull up an infected bean plant, it will have a skimpy root system with most small roots missing. A dark area of decay may be present on the main stem near the soil line.

Prevention

  • Plant beans in soil that has been thoroughly cultivated.
  • Do not follow potatoes with beans.
  • Proper spacing.
  • You’ll lose fewer seedlings to root rot diseases if you wait until the soil is warm to plant beans.
