LIGHT: Choose a sheltered, sunny spot (with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight) to help them grow well and protect them from strong winds.

WATERING: Keep the soil consistently moist, water regularly, especially during flowering and pod formation. Ensure the soil is well-drained to avoid waterlogging; during dry spells, watering once or twice a week is usually sufficient (adjust based on local weather).

SOIL: Broad Bean Aquadulce thrives best in a rich, well-drained soil that's been amended with plenty of organic matter.
