My Broad Beans (Fava) are coming on a treat. I love them as they are like giant peas when picked young and tender. I stake them with small branches set into the soil, these support the plant as it grows. You can eat the tender young shoots, add them to stirfries or salads. Once you have harvested all the beans, dig the plant back into the soil to replenish the soil with nitrogen.
