Hi Charles Incredible Edible Dunstable have been donated some broad beans plants from one of our supporters. The plants look extremely tender as if grown in a heated greenhouse to bring them on fast. I’ve left them outside in a sheltered spot to harden off and am worried as to where best to plant them in our community garden. Do you think they’d do best in a raised bed or over by the end of the raspberries where the sweetcorn came out. Do I need to fleece broad beans? All the beds have been top dressed with well rotted horse manure on our last public work day on 5th October and I plan to do the planting on Sunday 2nd November.
Kind regards
Sahira
