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?
prob not yet ready. We grow the sutton, and it gives a good crop of
large tasty broad beans. I usually harvest when the beans inside are
about the same size as a fingernail but they will grow bigger if left.
