What is a fully developed node when staging R3 soybeans?

"R3" typically refers to a specific growth stage of the soybean plant. In soybean growth stages, the R3 stage is often known as the "beginning pod" stage, where pods first appear on the nodes of the plant's main stem. During this stage, the soybean plant is actively flowering and forming pods, which will eventually contain the soybean seeds.
