Growing Techniques 0 views
This variety has advantages such as extra-early maturity, high quality, high yield, disease resistance, and large seeds. It can be cultivated both as a summer soybean and as an early-maturing vegetable pod bean, and is the best variety for field-edge beans. It is widely planted in the areas along the Huai River and in northern Huai, and in southern Anhui it can be grown for two seasons a year, with a yield of 280-380 kg per mu, a summer planting yield of 150-200 kg per mu, and a fresh pod yield of 750 kg per mu. This variety has a 100-seed weight of more than 25 g, with the high reaching 28-30 g, and contains 46.4% crude protein and 21.4% oil. The seeds are round and plump, with a yellow seed coat and a glossy hilum.

The seeds are round and plump, with a yellow seed coat and a glossy hilum, and fetch a high market price. The whole growth period is 90-95 days, the plant height is 65-70 cm, and the plants are sturdy, lodging-resistant, and resistant to viral diseases.

Key cultivation points. 1. Sowing at the right time: for fresh edamame under plastic film mulching, sow in late March and bring to market in early June; for open-field cultivation, sow in late April and pick the edamame in early July.

2. Sow with sufficient soil moisture to ensure a full stand: this variety has large seeds and needs more water, so the soil moisture must be good at sowing. The suitable density is 12,000-18,000 plants per mu, and the optimal density is 15,000 plants per mu.

3. Topdressing at the flowering stage: on land of medium fertility, no base fertilizer is needed. At the early flowering stage, apply 1.5-2.5 kg of urea as topdressing; at the flowering and podding stage, spray 0.1 kg of monopotassium phosphate and 0.075 kg of boron fertilizer per mu, which can increase yield by 15-20%.
