Okra is suitable for sowing in spring. At this time, suitable temperature is beneficial to seed germination and seedling growth. If you sow in summer, the temperature is too high and the light is too strong, it will inhibit the development of seedlings and may even dry up. The sowing time in autumn is very short, which affects the yield. The temperature is low in winter, so it can't germinate.

Method and process of planting okra seeds

First, soak the okra seeds for 12 hours, and then put them in the environment of 25-30℃ for germination. After about 24 hours, the seeds begin to germinate and then can be planted in the soil. Water first, then sow. After sowing, cover the soil for 2 cm and keep the temperature at about 25℃. After about 4-5 days, the okra seeds will germinate. 1. Select seeds to accelerate germination: First, you need to select strong, full and large okra seeds, then soak them in clear water for 12 hours, take them out and put them in a wet cloth to accelerate germination, and the seeds will germinate soon. 2. Soil preparation and fertilization: Before planting okra seeds, the soil needs to be renovated. Although it has strong adaptability to the environment, it is more suitable for planting in loose and fertile soil. You can level the soil and then apply a little base fertilizer on it. You can choose decomposed farmyard manure, 5000 kg per mu, and prepare a little compound fertilizer. 3. Seeding and seedling raising: Before sowing okra, wet the soil and keep it slightly wet, then sow it and cover it with 2 cm of soil. The environmental temperature should be controlled at about 25 degrees, and seedlings can emerge in 4-5 days. You can sow in 30 days.

Matters needing attention in planting okra seeds

After the okra seeds appear, weeding should be done in time. Young and weak seedlings can be pulled out and kept at a certain distance, and appropriate topdressing is needed. It is best to use urea, 6-7 kg each time. When the plant grows to a certain height, a bracket can be installed to avoid lodging, and the old leaves can be removed in time to increase lighting and ventilation.
