Broad beans problem
« on: April 24, 2010, 13:20 »
I planed out my broad beans last week and today the look like they have some black dots on the leaves and possibly something has nibbled the leaves. I have had them under plastic and it has been warm , could they just be burnt?

They don't need to be coddled very much at all - did you harden them off? Being under plastic might have made them too "soft" so they could have chocolate spot (use a fungicide spray) and the nibbling may be pea and bean weevil - is it semi-circular and just at the edges?
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

It means that it's pea and bean weevil, but nothing to worry about, the plants usually just grow out of it :)
