dikoehler's Okra Care Instructions
If sowing directly, aim to sow 0.98 inches (2.5 cm) deep and try to ensure a gap of at least 11.7 inches (30.0 cm).
Okra normally grows to a mature height of 1.00 metres (that's 3.25 feet imperial) so ensure you have enough space in your garden for this plant.
Your garden has full sun light, which is a great match for Okra.
Remember to water often.
Your garden's USDA Hardiness Zone (8b) is within the ideal range for Okra. The recommended range is between Zone 5 and 11.
A soil ph of between 6.0 and 6.5 is ideal for Okra as it does best in acidic soil so test your soil acidity often.
More information about Okra is available in the Folia gardener's wiki. All Okra Care Instructions have been kindly provided by our members.
