Planting Instructions:

 

Soil Preparation:

Remove weeds, large rocks, and litter from the planting area. Till the soil 8-10 inches deep and rake several times to break up large clods. It is best to do this when the soil is dry enough to not stick to garden tools. Loosening the soil will help the plant establish strong roots.
 

Planting:

In the Spring, plant beans after all danger of frost has passed. Directly sow in loose, fertile, moist, well-draining soil in full sun when consistently >65F in Spring. Or sow in Fall when plant can grow at least 13 weeks in >60F temperature. Planting in moist soil is best for seeds to germinate and emerge quickly.


Planting Depth: 1 inch
Within-Row Spacing:
 8 inches
Between-Row Spacing:
 1-2 feet

 

Care During the Season:

Watering: Water the plants about once a week in dry weather. Try not to let the soil dry out while the beans are blooming or the blooms will drop and yields will be decreased.

Weeding: The roots of beans grow near the soil surface. When hoeing and pulling weeds, try not to dig too deep to prevent the plant's roots from damage.

Insecticides: Insecticides may be used to protect plants. Bt-based insecticides and sulfur are organic options. Sulfur also has fungicidal properties and helps in controlling many diseases. Before using a pesticide, read the label and always follow cautions, warnings and directions.

Diseases: Diseases may be a possibility during cool, wet weather. If spots appear on leaves or bean pods, treat the plant with an approved fungicide. Neem oil, sulfur, and other fungicides may be used.
 

Harvesting:

Pick edamame when they are about 3 inches long and edamame are plump in pods. Edamame are over-mature if they are tough, dry, or fading in color.
