The pods on my crop are up to about 4" long and quite slim. The beans
are quite bitter. Will the pods get bigger and the beans taste nicer?

Or is it:

- If you buy a dwarf variety, expect the pods to be dwarf too?
- The only good thing about a dwarf variety is that it's small?
- I've not been treating them right?

Thanks!

Broad beans are ready for picking when they hang down instead of
sticking up.
