Why these dates

Sow two weeks after the last frost. Pods on a plant fill almost simultaneously, so the harvest window is about a week and succession sowing is the only way to extend it.

Killed at 0C. Flowering is triggered by day length, so a variety chosen for the wrong latitude flowers at the wrong time regardless of sowing date.

Seed packets and extension guides express timing as weeks either side of the last spring frost, because that is the only reference point that travels. Edamame are timed for direct sowing 2 weeks after it, and this page simply resolves those offsets against the frost date computed for Chí Linh.
