Product Overview
Soy Bean Edamame Seeds
25 grams of seed
Edamame soybeans are a delicious, protein-packed crop that’s easy to grow at home. The large, tender beans are best enjoyed boiled or steamed, bringing out their naturally sweet flavour. High in protein and fibre, they make a fantastic plant-based option for healthy meals. Harvest the pods young for the best taste, then simply pop out the beans and enjoy them fresh.
How to Grow
Sow seeds directly into their final growing position once the soil has warmed to at least 20°C. Plant 2.5 cm deep in rows 30 cm apart, with 30 cm spacing between plants. Choose a sunny position in rich, well-drained soil that has been prepared with compost or organic matter. Seedlings emerge in 7–10 days. Keep plants evenly watered, especially as pods begin to fill. No additional fertiliser is required, as legumes naturally produce their own nitrogen.
When to Plant
Sow from late spring through summer, when soil temperatures are reliably warm.
Soil Type
Prefers fertile, free-draining soil enriched with organic matter. Avoid waterlogged ground.
Harvest
Pick pods while still young and plump for the sweetest flavour.
