Has anyone any idea what could be causing this?? appreciate any advice!

I've been told it's down to lack of water.
Suggest it may be a lack of bees to pollinate them - that's what I've
put it down to on mine - same thing with the broad beans, very poor
crop.
Maybe I shouldn't have planted the Cerinthe next to the beans - they're
covered in bees. Could it be that it's too much of a distraction? :-)
