Unlike bush and pole beans, Fava beans like growing (and performing best) in cool weather. A good crop to sow along with your peas. They are actually a relative of vetch, not a true bean, and have been cultivated for thousands of years around the world. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe plant grows 3-4’, and pods form from white and black flowers along its length. Vroma Fava Bean pods can grow to 6-7” enclosing 4-5 large, elongated penny, sized beans. Green shell beans can be used like limas. If planted early, the harvest will begin in July. A fall\/winter harvest is possible with late planting, especially in regions with mild winters     \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e30-40 seeds \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #4db322;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003ePLANTING\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eVicia faba\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGermination:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 10-14 days\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGermination Temperature:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Optimum soil temperatures are 60-65ºF\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeed Sowing Depth: \u003c\/strong\u003e1” deep \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSowing Outdoors:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Spring when soil temperatures reach 50-55ºF.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Sow 4-6” apart.

Dry soil can result in low yields and fibrous pods. Do not over-fertilize with nitrogen which results in a surplus of foliage and low, delayed pod growth. Adding inoculant at planting time aids in a larger harvest and more robust plants. Sow a few times a season, 3-4 weeks apart for a continuous harvest.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"aircall-extension-app\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pinetree Garden Seeds","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":5282505476,"sku":"W228","price":4.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0972\/6282\/products\/windsor-fava-bean-75-days-vegetables-pinetree-garden-seeds-414.jpg?v=1603381364","url":"https:\/\/www.superseeds.mom\/products\/windsor-fava-bean-75-days","provider":"Pinetree Garden Seeds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
