broad beans
Bought my first ever grow bags today - see what you've all done to me!
Can I grow broad beans in them? Got lettuce and toms all ready to start in them. Just need to find a neighbour's trusted (paid) offspring to keep them watered when I go on holiday in May. Vicky |

Don't delay, because it is getting fairly late for them (though I planted mine just a week back!) It might be worth soaking them and starting them on damp kitchen roll in a shallow container covered with cling film or a plastic bag. That is what I do, and plant them out when they show roots. Regards, Nick Maclaren. |

Try something else this year I would |
