Planting

Edamame and cold weather do not mix, so wait to plant until all danger of frost has passed. Plants demand warm soil, much like basil or tomatoes.

Don’t plant seedlings until soil is above 55° F. Edamame plants tolerate diverse conditions, including drought, light shade, and clay soil. You’ll see best yields when plants grow in full sun, tucked into compost-enriched soil with plenty of moisture.

You need to harvest all the pods at the same time otherwise they turn yellow. Leave some on the plant for seeds in the new year.

They contain almost 40 percent protein (11 grams per 1/2 cup of cooked beans) and are high in vitamins A and B, calcium, iron, and fiber.
