Fava Beans Organic

West Coast Seeds - We would love to hear your thoughts

Beans were planted in Mid October and haven't done very much, maybe a inch of greenery ,so the recommendation of planting late should be moved to an earlier date. to allow the pants to be come more established. and provide a green cover for the winter to avoid washing out the soil.

Using as a cover crop to fix nitrogen into the soil in the off season. Good germination, fast starting. We are off to a good start, but far from done so I can't give it 5 stars yet.

So far, so good. We planted them about mid November and it took them a while to get started, but now they're growing very well. There was a high percentage of generation, and they're now about 4 or 5 inches high (January 21).
