82 days. Glycine max. Open Pollinated. Chiba Green Soybean. The compact bush plant produces high yields of 2 ½” long soybeans. Beans are green and are very flavorful. It is a high quality soybean. It is specifically grown for its tender, young, green pods, an Asian favorite. Avoid waiting too long to harvest, as the pods will start to turn yellow, and the beans will become hard and starchy, and lose their sweet flavor. After harvesting the beans, they should be cooked, blanched, and frozen soon after, to preserve their fresh flavor. It is best when planted in late spring or early summer. Perfect for small gardens. An excellent choice for home gardens and market growers. A variety from Japan.

Note: The ideal soil temperature for germination is around 70°F, so wait until the soil has warmed in late spring to early summer before planting.

Soybeans Planting Information:

Soybeans are not cold-hardy plants. Do not plant until the soil is warm. Soybeans have a harder time sprouting than other beans. Plant your Soybeans outdoors directly in the garden, 14 days after your last frost date, and when nighttime temperatures are 75°F and soil temperature is 65°F. Use black plastic to warm the soil a few weeks before planting seeds. Soybeans do not like soil that is too moist. Plants can grow 12 to 24" tall.

Warning: Do not plant in cold, wet soil, or you may experience poor germination!

Soil Requirements:

Requires rich, fertile soil in a well-drained location in the garden. Apply mulch, grass clippings, or straw around the base of the plant.

Water Requirements:

Soybeans do not like soil that is too moist or like standing water. Water during dry and hot spells.

Fertilizer Requirements:

Use Slow Release (6 Month) Fertilizer when planting outdoors. Periodically apply Miracle-Gro. Too much nitrogen interferes with production yields.

Harvest Tips:

For fresh soybeans, pick as you would pick shelling peas. To store dried soybeans, wait until the pods are dry.
