Direct
sow broad bean seed under cloches in February, or without protection
from March to April. For particularly early crops some varieties of
broad beans may also be sown outdoors under cloches from early autumn to
late winter. Grow beans in full sun on rich fertile, well manured
soil with protection from strong winds. Plant broad beans in double
rows set 23cm (9") apart and allowing at least 60cm (24") between each
double row. Sow broad beans at a depth of 5cm (2") deep and a distance
of 23cm (9") apart within each row and water well. Germination usually
takes around 10 days.
When
growing broad beans, support the plants by placing a cane or stout
stick at each corner of a double row and tying in with string,
especially in windy gardens. Keep well watered, particularly as flowers
begin to set and hoe between rows regularly. Pinch out the growing tips
after the first flowers have set pods to deter blackfly and encourage
further pods to set. Harvest broad beans when the pods are well filled
and the seed still soft.
