Why do some broad beans have big pods but no beans?

« 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.

I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...
