Product details
The most appropriate date for planting soya beans in South Africa is from early to mid-November. The spacing between the rows of the soya beans can range from 5 to 15cm between the plants, but an early plant date has a bigger effect on yield than row width. Spacing can also be determined by your irrigation method or general water availability. Keep in mind that bigger plants are prone to excessive vegetation growth, which can cause lodging. Soya bean seeds should be planted at a soil depth of 3 to 5cm. Good seed-to-soil contact must be ensured to enhance germination.
Soya beans are easy to grow and generally trouble-free, as long as they are kept warm and well watered throughout the growing season. In cool summers or colder regions, cropping may be reduced. Take care not to plant them out too early, and protect them with fleece or cloches to keep them warm while they get established.
Harvest when immature and still green and tender, 45-60 days from sowing. Or leave to mature, in about 100 days.
Seedlings and young plants are vulnerable to slugs and snails.
