I find the time on the crockpot to be quite approximate and reasonably tolerable for a swing of an hour or two. The issue is if you put it on high or low. I place these on high to break things down, the way Southern-style butter beans are cooked. Hi Candice, yes, the time is the same for the other sized limas.

I also use fresh garlic and onion for the seasoning unless I have bought garlic and onion powder from a bulk spice retailer. Fresh onion and garlic have more flavor than the powders, and no preservatives. This is a great recipe, but I go even a little further and start with dry red beans and black beans.
