I planted some field beans as a nitrogen fix in one bed this year but then decided I fancied also eating the beans. By the time I harvested the vines were woody. Will there still be the nitrogen fixing properties or do they need digging in when fresh and young?

What do we know about the invasive potential of these plants? I'm particularly interested in sea buckthorn but I know that some buckthorn can be quite aggressive in the northern states.
