Some kind of critter always goes after ours. Not sure if it was deer, rabbits, or woodchuck. If you have any of these, make sure you can protect your plants.

You might try staggering your plantings to spread the harvest out unless your plan it to freeze the excess.

Hey thanks for posting up. I bought some seed by Kitazawa Seed outta Oakland ,Calif. Cant wait! Thought about starting early in 1020 trays in the garage. Will-be putting up deer netting for all my growbag plants.

The various soy beans are among the most nutrition packed veggies you can grow. Glad to see somebody growing their own. The US soy bean "industry" uses more tons of herbicides than any other crop grown on the continent. Please do not contribute to that problem. They will benefit your soil while producing something to bring to the table. (The couple buck$ you spend for inoculant will more than pay for itself in N added to your soil.
