Watch our Kitchen Garden Specialist show you how to sow broad beans and get them off to a head start in the greenhouse.
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Tamp it down slightly to remove air pockets and to keep your seeds snug
- Put a few seeds in each pot (3 or 4 should be good) or space a few centimetres apart in a tray
- Add more compost over the top to fill the pots or tray
- Tamp down again
- Check if the compost is still damp every few days and water if not
- You’ll have seedlings to plant out in just a few weeks
