Edamame (Glycine max), commonly known as young soybeans. The name "edamame" translates to “stem beans” in Japanese, referring to how they are traditionally harvested. Unlike fully mature soybeans, edamame is picked while the pods are still green and tender, making them a delicious and healthy snack. Edamame is a nutrient-dense, easy-to-grow crop that offers culinary versatility, health benefits, and soil improvement. By following proper planting, care, and harvesting techniques, gardeners can enjoy a bountiful harvest of fresh edamame. Whether grown in gardens, raised beds, or containers, edamame makes a fantastic addition to any home garden.

When to Plant Seeds

  • Sow seeds directly into the garden after the last spring frost when soil temperatures are above 55°F (13°C).
  • Can be successively planted every 2-3 weeks for an extended harvest.

Preparing for Planting

  1. Choose a sunny location with well-draining soil.
  2. Loosen the soil to a depth of 6-8 inches and mix in compost.
  3. Avoid nitrogen-rich fertilizers, as edamame produces its own nitrogen.

Direct Sowing Outdoors

  • Plant seeds 1 inch deep and 3-4 inches apart.
  • Space rows 18-24 inches apart to allow room for growth.
  • Water immediately after planting.

Indoor Starting

  • Can be started indoors 2-3 weeks before transplanting.
  • Use peat pots to prevent root disturbance.
  • Harden off seedlings before moving outdoors.

Pro Tip

Edamame thrives in warm soil, so plant it after the last frost when temperatures are consistently above 15°C (60°F). Grow in full sun and harvest pods when they’re plump but still bright green.

Bonus: Pick frequently to encourage more production!

Getting to know your Edamame

Edamame is a type of soybean harvested young for its tender, protein-rich pods. It thrives in warm temperatures, full sun, and well-drained soil. The plant grows 2-3 feet tall and matures in 75-90 days. Pods should be picked when plump and bright green before they harden. Edamame requires minimal maintenance but benefits from nitrogen-rich soil. It is commonly steamed or boiled and eaten as a snack. As a legume, edamame improves soil fertility by fixing nitrogen.
