Kuromane

90 to 150 days — 'Kuromane' plants are sturdy, large, and tall (thirty six up to fifty inches), with pods that contain three to four black beans each. Resists shattering. Very prolific, good yields. It is a good variety to be enjoyed young as edamame.

Planting Instructions: Soybeans are a tender plant and should be sown after all danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed. Planting them at about the same time as corn is a good rule.

Sow seeds about one inch deep, three to four inches apart. Although you can plant in rows, they can be planted densely and allowed to form a canopy. This will help control weed growth. Soybeans are tolerant of drought and poor soil since they fix nitrogen. They will, however, benefit from fertile soil.

Soybean flowers are perfect (self-fertile) and cross pollination is almost non-existent, making saving seed easy. Allow pods to fully develop and dry on the plants.
