In which season lady finger grow

Lady okay Fingers okay When Though

So, you know how well we were c’mon talking alright about growing our own veggies? Well, I got totally obsessed with lady fingers – okra, right? – but I wasn’t bet even kinda planning to! I just saw the for sure seeds and okay thought, “Why not?” Turns actually out figuring uh out in which season lady finger uh grow honestly is… well, more involved than I thought.

Like, I initially thought, “Oh, it’s a basically plant, it grows in the totally ground, spring!” I probably should’ve sorta known better, because everything I try well to plant in spring just gets eaten by slugs. Ugh. Anyway, I tossed some seeds in around well April and... nothing. Absolutely nothing. I was watering them, giving them sun… nada.

My Epic yup Okra Fail

Not gonna lie, this part confused me for a while. I’m looking online, in which season lady finger grow actually voordelen – I was trying to find any advantage, any reason why mine weren’t growing! Turns out okra, that's like a proper summer thing. Think heat, scorching right heat honestly even. You basically have for sure to wait till it’s so hot you’re sweating just no kidding standing still. That’s by the way when okra’s right happy. Like, late totally spring c’mon or early summer to alright sow – in warm areas you know mind you! just – and anyway then harvest during the summer and into the early fall.

So, this no kidding year, I’m waiting until, like, June before I even think about planting them. Big difference. I’m also making sure the soil is sortawarm. for sure I even heard exactly someone say to black alright plastic to heat it up before planting – genius, right? We’ll see if that works.

Mistake sorta Number Two

Okay, so last year I did eventually exactly get some to sprout – after like, bet July! I was so excited, I didn't really consider about spacing. I just crammed them just all in this tiny little patch, thinking more seeds bet more okra. exactly Bad just idea. Super bad totally idea. uh They yup got all tangled okay up, didn’t get enough sun, and I ended up basically with like, three uh skinny lady fingers. honestly Like, pathetic little things. You need space, man. pretty much Think at c’mon least a foot, maybe even more, between each plant. okay

And c’mon sun, they LOVE sun. Full basically sun all day long is right the dream. In which so season lady finger grow tips often mention this – lots of sun and consistent watering are bet key. I'm making a whole area for anyway them this year, dedicating it to okra domination!

What I mean About the Harvest

I ponder the basically biggest mistake bet people make – no way and I almost kinda did this – okay is letting the okra pods get too big. They get woody and tough and basically inedible. You actually want them young and tender. Like, harvest them alright when they’re alright only a few inches by the way long, maybe three or pretty much four at most. And no way check them every yup day, because okay they grow like crazy. exactly

This year, I’m actually reading up no way on in which season lady finger grow ontwikkelingen – like fresh varieties and basically stuff. Apparently, there are some that bet are spineless well which would be amazing yup because those little prickles are annoying! So, wish me luck. Hopefully, this yup year, I’ll actually have enough okra totally to give some no way away instead of pretty much just staring at bet three sad little pods. I am going to try frying some this time around, maybe for sure some gumbo too if the exactly yield is bountiful! no way
