Grow.Sow the seeds one inch deep in rows that are three feet apart. The seeds generally germinate in two to 12 days. Okra will grow in many soil types, so mulch and fertilize as needed. Once the plants start to grow, thin them so they are spaced 12 to 18 inches apart.
Humidity.They also excel in dry conditions but still grow perfectly well in humid climates.
Fertilizer.If you have organically rich soil, you won't need supplemental fertilizer.
Self-seeding.Grow from seed and enjoy growing with your family
Okra seeds are large and easy to handle. Some gardeners like to soak the seeds in water the night before planting to soften the tough seed coating, but you should get good germination if you simply keep the soil moist until the seedlings emerge. Okra can be direct sown or started indoors and transplanted. Starting seedlings in biodegradable pots that can be planted in the ground will lessen root disturbance and transplant shock. Wait until the weather is reliably warm, about two weeks after your last projected frost date, before transplanting outdoors. Okra prefers evening temperatures around 65 degrees Fahrenheit and daytime temperatures in the upper 80s. If you are direct sowing, plant the seeds 1 inch deep and 4 to 8 inches apart. Space rows 3 feet apart. Thin seedlings to 18 to 24 inches apart when they are roughly 4 to 6 inches tall to give the plants room to branch. Crowding will result in thin plants with few fruits. The plants will keep producing pods throughout the summer, though in lessening quantities. Harvest pods continuously to keep the plants producing. Gardeners in warm climates can plant a second crop for harvest into the fall.
