Okra is typically a hot weather plant but can be grown in cooler regions with great success.
It only needs 50 . 60 days with temperatures between 65 and 90 degrees to produce its fruits.
The trick is to be patient and wait until the weather is warm enough to plant. Also, plant in the full sun on the southern slope of your garden.
Okra does not like either wet or acidic soils.
In warm districts okra can be sown in garden beds. Raise seedlings in a similar way to capsicums – warmth is essential.
Pick pods within a week of flowers opening – at about 5 – 8 cm long. Pods become tough and inedible if left too long.
Pods have a high gum content so do not appeal to everyone.

Harvest in 80-98 days
Grow in seed trays, and plant out in 4-6 weeks. Sow seed at a depth approximately three times the diameter of the seed.
Best planted at soil temperatures between 20°C and 35°C.
Space plants: 35-60cm
