Hi, Granny.

I hope to be back on this very interesting thread before the day is over. It’s just been a busy, busy day so far.

I was finally able to find some okra seeds this morning. Have to have them, tomatoes, squash and peppers, if nothing else. It will be about a week or two behind my other plants, though. I started nearly all of them from seed this year, as buying plants got too expensive.

Fresh homegrown tomatoes and fried okra. I can hardly wait!

Hurry back, we miss you.

Do you soak your okra seed in warm water for 3 or 4 hours, before you plant them?

They seemed to sprout quicker when I did.

Something that i read about doing, some place and found it worked.

I love okra any way it comes.
