I must concur that no dig is great for broad beans.
Also concur that heavy rain and June sun are a great growth stimulus. Parsnips, onions, potatoes, corn, soil-based tomatoes, beetroot, chard, dwarf beans and pole beans have all shot ahead thanks to 4 inches of rain this month, around double the June average here.
I have also cut my comfrey plants three times this year already: most unusual. Normally it is 5-6 weeks per cycle, this year it has been four weeks.
