Title: Question about Broad Beans
Post by: Marianne on May 23, 2005, 19:25:18

Sorry this may be a silly question but my BBs are coming up a treat. My question is : Do I need to grow them up a fence? Or leave them in the pot as they now ?? ???

Thanks for any replies. :D

not daft at all. I grow mine in open ground, and they get to be about 4-5ft tall. They shouldn't need staking, but if I don't, they get blown over by wind. I put a couple or three stakes at each end and then tie them all up!! Not sure about pot size, my daughters is in about 7-8 inch pot, but it's quite a small bean. Hope this helps. Lottie ;D ;D
