Technically, ‘Galaxy’ is not the true designated name for this soybean but it’s true name is a series of letters and numbers – none of which I will ever remember (DV 2371). But more than that, for such a phenomenal looking and performing soybean, it truly does deserve a name worthy of it’s glory. From 9 plants I harvested 1 lb, 6 ounces of seed! In my neck of the woods, this borders on the miraculous and on par with seeing a sasquatch. It is a deep caramel color, with black swirls all over it, very marbled looking, almost galactic. I’ve never seen anything like it. That said, I had to work to get these beans. I started with 3 week old transplants, and I propped in bamboo supports as the months went on and I had to cut the plants down (because a frost was imminent) and dry them in a bucket in my sunroom. This variety also has one major weakness – it gets incredibly huge and I’m sure it approached 4 feet tall with huge, long branches loaded with pods. These tend to break, a lot. I threw away a full armload of branches due to breakage. I honestly think each plant needs a tomato cage, or a pole next to it and should be tied\/secured regularly as the plant grows – or you’ll simply lose a lot of branches. I can only wonder what my total weight would have been with all that extra seed! Even with the fussing I did – and I fussed alot – this variety was worth it. It’s actually pretty incredible.\u00a0 2022 seed.\u00a0 Gratefully received from the wonderful collection of Chris Hoetschel, Oshkosh, Wisconsin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":919,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"default","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center
