Dunkel behaarte Hülsen, sehr große, tiefgrüne Kerne, werden zur Trockenreife schwarz. Besonders guter Geschmack. Pflückreife zehn Tage später als Summer Shell, an kühlen Standorten nicht zu spät säen. Großer und buschiger Wuchs, sehr guter Ertrag.

pods with dark pubescence
That's the way I'd put it. It is the hairs (the pubescence) that is dark, not (necessarily) the pods themselves. If pubescence is too technical a word for the target audience (I don't know who they are), you might try fuzz or down instead of hairs.
