Edamame are the young pods, with immature seed, while soy milk is extracted from mature seeds and used to make tofu.How to grow
A warm season crop, sow Soy Beans directly when soil temperatures reach at least 15-18 degrees C and all likelihood of frost has passed. Sow in full sun in a rich soil around 4cm deep and about 10cm apart, (space rows around 45cm apart). Water regularly during germination. Seed should germinate in 7-10 days. Protect seedlings from snails and slugs, especially while young. Harvest as soon as the pods are plump and the seed is nearly full sized, but still green usually 6-7 weeks from sowing or leave to mature and wait for the pods fall to the ground to harvest dried beans.
