Soybean - Chiba Green. Heirloom, Glycine max. NonGMO. 78 days. Warm season annual. This variety is noted for its green seed coat and very large seeds. It produces large pods of deep green color and a high percentage of 3 seeded pods. This is a medium maturing type and it matures 2-3 days earlier than Midori Giant. Adapted throughout the USA, it also performs extremely well in numerous foreign countries. Prepare fertile, well-drained soil. Sow seeds in late spring/early summer after last frost in a warm, sunny location. Seeds will rot or fail to germinate if over watered or soaked. Keep soil moist but not soaked during the germinating period. Fertilize as needed. Warm day temperatures (75-85?F) and cool night temperatures are important for best results. Harvest when soybeans swell in pod and when the leaves have changed from bright green to a slight yellowish-green color. No staking required. Prepare edamame, a traditional Japanese treat, by boiling fresh pods for 3-4 minutes in salted water and serve them as an appetizer. Blanche fresh beans and freeze to store your extra harvest for winter eating. Approx 175 seeds / oz.
