Broad Beans - How long til they're ready

Hi, my broad beans are still flowering, some the flowers are finishing, some developing pods, anybody know how long til they're ready? I'm busting to put my tomatoes in. Of course, I can't remember when I put them in, would have been autumn/winter some time.

It won't take very long till you can start harvesting, once they start developing pods. Another 2 weeks maybe? Depending on what the weather will do in the next few weeks it might even be sooner (or later?).

You must live in a frost-free area to be busting to put tomatoes in. :)

Hi, thanks for that, yeah still a bit cool here.

I'll have my free garden bed set up for my more mature tomatoes so they can go in when it warms up. Having lots of fun breaking up the clay.

Where the beans are should be free if I start raising my new seeds now.
