Okra is a warm-season favorite for many gardeners — and for good reason! 🌿 In this video, we share everything you need to know about growing okra, harvesting it at the right time, and tips to boost your summer garden success. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned gardener, this guide will help you grow healthy, productive okra plants all season long.
✅ Planting Tips: Start okra from seed in well-draining soil and full sun. Warm soil (above 70°F) is key for germination. Soak seeds overnight for faster sprouting.
✅ Growing & Care: Okra thrives in the heat! Water consistently and mulch to conserve moisture. Fertilize with compost or organic fertilizer to support steady growth.
✅ Harvesting: Pick pods when they’re 2–4 inches long — any larger and they become tough. Harvest every 1–2 days to keep production going!
✅ Bonus Tips: Okra is drought-tolerant, pest-resistant, and adds beauty to the garden with its hibiscus-like flowers.
Grow this summer staple for crisp, delicious pods perfect for frying, pickling, or gumbo!
