Soybean Seedlings - 1-19-8

After just about 5 days I have the first of my soybean seedlings coming up. These should be fun. As I understand it these grow as plants, or bushes, not vines so they shouldn't need to be tied. Also, I should expect to be able to harvest from mature plants in just a couple of months. I have found that soybeans are reportedly good green as well as dried so there is some fun experimentation ahead. I think the name for the green salted soybeans is edamame.

Since the image was taken the pods have opened a bit and the first set of leaves has started to emerge.
