The soybeans look good. My opinion, however, is that they are way too rank to maximize yield. I would much prefer a plant between knee and waist high closer nodes, more pods and less plant. I see this often where the plant appears lush and vigorous but the shorter more compact plant will consistently out yield these monster straw producing beans. In fact often times plants purposely stressed at the correct time will bust the bin. These plants sure look happy but I think if you had disciplined them some while they were growing up you would see many more pods and you would be amazed at the yield improvement.
