Growing conditions: Broad beans are a cool weather legume – they cope well with cooler conditions and will struggle in high temperatures. They prefer a sunny, sheltered position with fertile, moist, free-draining soil. In very wet or clay soil conditions, starting off seeds in pots may give better results.
