Instructions
Optimal Climate: Okra grows best in warm conditions with temperatures between 18°C to 35°C. It thrives under full sunlight and prefers the warmer months of spring, early summer, or rainy season. Germination Temperature: 18°C to 32°C is ideal for the seeds to sprout.
Soil Requirements: Use well-drained, fertile soil or a potting mix with organic fertilizers for optimal growth. A good soil mix ensures the plants have the nutrients they need for a bountiful harvest. Sowing
DO NOT SOAK THE SEEDS IN WATER
Seeding Depth: Plant seeds 1-2 cm deep and space them 12-15 inches apart. This spacing ensures the plants have room to grow.
Direct Sowing: You can plant okra seeds directly in your garden, grow bags, or containers. In containers, sow 2-3 seeds per pot, and choose grow bags of dimensions like 12×12, 15×15, or 24×12 inches.
Seedling Method: For better survival rates and to protect the seedlings from pests and climate stress, germinate seeds in seedling trays or small pots, and transplant them to larger grow bags or garden beds once established.
Watering: Water regularly but avoid waterlogging. The soil should be kept moist, especially during the growing season. It’s recommended to water with a gentle sprayer.
Sunlight and Care
Place your okra plants in a sunny spot, ensuring they get at least 6 hours of full sunlight daily.
Temperature Tolerance: Okra can tolerate high temperatures but grows best between 20°C to 35°C.
Fertilizer & Pest Control
Use a water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks after the plants reach 6 inches in height to promote healthy growth and ensure a good harvest.
Common pests that affect okra include aphids, corn earworms, stinkbugs, and Fusarium wilt. Protect your plants by using organic pesticides like Neem oil, which is effective against most pests.
Harvesting Guidelines: Okra plants are usually ready to harvest within 60-70 days after sowing. Harvest the pods when they are 2-3 inches long. Regular harvesting every 2-3 days encourages continued pod production. Pro Tip: Harvesting okra before the pods become too mature ensures the best texture and taste.

Improper growing conditions such as lack of proper sunlight, over-watering, under-watering, or planting seeds too deep may prevent germination, avoid direct excess sunlight and rain during initial germination phase
