The Backyard Gardens Favorite is perfect for a big harvest in a small space.
Okra is a full-sun crop that does not perform well in cold soils. Seeds can be sown directly after the final frost date but, for earliest starts, begin indoors 3-4 weeks prior. Plant 2-3 seeds 1/2" deep per peat pot or 4-6" apart in the garden in sandy, Organically fertile, and well-drained soil with a pH of 5.8-7.0. Okra germinates in 4-10 days, transplanting or thinning your best starts to 18-24" apart in the garden.
Okra thrives alongside other full sun staples such as melon, cucumber, and eggplant. These plants don't do well in cool temperatures, so be sure to keep them away from frost. During growth, remove weeds so that they don't interfere.
Feed with a well balanced fertilizer throughout the growing season.
Harvest pods young and often for optimal tenderness. If okra pods are left on the plant too long they will become hard and woody textured.
spacing- 1 plant every 2- 3 ft
