Seed Freshness: Newly harvested for optimal germination
Origin: Bred for northern climates, known for early maturity and cold tolerance
Shelf Life: Best planted within one year for maximum viability
Planting Instructions:
Seed Preparation:
No pre-soaking required, but soaking for 6-12 hours may improve germination.
Sowing Guidelines:
Direct Sowing (Recommended):
When to Plant: Sow outdoors after the last frost, when soil temperatures reach at least 55-60°F (13-16°C).
Depth: Plant 1 inch deep in well-draining soil.
Spacing:
Within Rows: 3-4 inches apart
Between Rows: 18-24 inches apart
Germination:
Typically occurs within 7-14 days under optimal conditions.
Keep soil evenly moist but not waterlogged.
Care & Maintenance:
Watering: Provide deep, consistent watering, especially during flowering and pod formation. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.
Fertilization: Avoid high-nitrogen fertilizers, as soybeans fix their own nitrogen. A phosphorus-rich fertilizer may benefit pod development.
Mulching: Apply mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Support: No staking required, as Fiskeby soybeans have a sturdy, bushy growth habit.
Companion Planting: Grows well with corn, cucumbers, and carrots but should not be planted near onions or garlic.
Harvesting & Storage:
For Edamame: Pick pods when they are plump but still green, typically 70-80 days after planting. Boil or steam immediately for fresh eating or freezing.
For Dried Soybeans: Allow pods to fully dry on the plant before harvesting. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to one year.
