Title: Why do some broad beans have big pods but no beans?
Post by: Mrs Bee on June 24, 2012, 20:26

I haven't yet picked my broad beans yet this year but last year some of the pods which looked big and promising had no beans in them. Which was rather disappointing.

I still had a large harvest tho'.

Does anyone know why this happens please. :)
