Texas Longhorn Okra Seeds (300 Seed Package)

Matures in 55 to 60 days. Okra is a hot weather vegetable. Okra seeds are hard. Soak them in water overnight before planting to speed germination. Space the seed about 6 inches apart and about 1/2" in the row and thin seedlings to the recommended spacing, or plant groups of two or three seeds at the recommended final spacing and thin seedling groups to one plant. Okra seedlings are sensitive to cool, wet soils and cool air temperatures. Acid soils result in poor pod development. A second planting of okra seeds about 6 weeks after the first planting ensures plenty of tender pods in late summer and fall when production on the early planting is declining. Cut back tall okra plants to a height of 3 to 4 feet to promote branching, to make harvesting easier,and to renew the plants. Side dress with a nitrogen fertilizer at the same time.
