When to plant broad bean in Newman
We don't have planting times for broad bean in Newman yet.
Worked out from 30 years of climate records for Newman. Microclimates vary: frost hollows and hills run later.
A hardy cool-season legume sown in autumn for big pods in spring, and a great soil improver. Plants grow tall, so stake or string them before wind knocks them over. Pinch out the growing tips once the lowest pods form to deter aphids and speed pod fill.
