85 days — The plants reach twenty-two to thirty-two inches in height producing pods that contain two to four seeds each. The beans are very large in size, dull and black in color and have a richer flavor than many varieties. Excellent as edamame, pronounced "ed-uh-mah-may." Each packet contains 25 to 30 seeds.
Planting Instructions:
Soybeans are a tender plant and should be sown after all danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed. Planting them at about the same time as corn is a good rule.
Sow seeds about one inch deep, three to four inches apart. Although you can plant in rows, they can be planted densely and allowed to form a canopy. This will help control weed growth. Soybeans are tolerant of drought and poor soil since they fix nitrogen. They will, however, benefit from fertile soil.
Soybean flowers are perfect (self-fertile) and cross pollination is almost non-existent, making saving seed easy. Allow pods to fully develop and dry on the plants.
