How many times can I harvest the snap beans
Sugar snaps flowers at 6-8 week from date of planting but to some varieties up to 12 weeks. Picking is done when pods are full and approximately 7.5 cm in length. Picking activities are done at interval of 2 days for a period of 4-6 weeks

Thanks, after the 1st harvest how long does it take after it has sprouted for the 2nd flowering
Sugar snap are indeterminate ( continuously grow) after the initial flowering it doesn't stop that's there's 4-6 weeks continuous harvesting this means there are younger flowers coming out when other pods are mature for harvesting.
