Our fava beans are up and doing well.
Did you plant for ground cover only then plow them into soil later before or after flowering ?
or will you let them go to harvest the beans before plowing them into the soil?
I assume your fava beans are winter ground cover for plowing into the soil for nitrogen in the spring, and then later using the same soil for summer tomato and other veggies, is that right?

My fava is not ground cover.
We grow them for cooking. The size of my fava is larger than that of the ground cover fava. I also believe my fava beans are much tender than the ground cover fava’s.
You are right, after harvest we do plow them into the soil for next year nutrient.
Wish the best of your fava.
