question about soy beans

Animal · Jul 8, 2015

At what point do the soybeans quit growing? At the turning of the leaves, leaf drop, or when?

I would say leaf drop, but I'm kinda guessing, hope someone who knows chimes in?

I'd think nutrients are still lightly flowing in the stem and the leaf stems until the leaves drop off?

Aren't there two different kinds? I don't know if I've got the terminology right,I don't raise beans,but there's a determinate kind that gets to a certain stage,stops growing,then sets pods,grown mostly in the south,then there's an indeterminate kind that just keeps growing and setting pods here farther north isn't there?

Thought it was the other way around, our beans up here in the north react to shorter days and will shut down when the light gets less? Beans growing around the car dealers lot never did get ripe, stayed green until they froze, could see the semicircle by each light.

Are you asking about the plant, or the beans/pods?. The plants grow very little after the pods start to form.
