Transplanting management: When 2-3 real leaves grow and the plant height is 5 cm, okra can be transplanted. The flowerpot can be 2 1-24 cm and the height is 25-30 cm. If you can find the best black and loose soil on the rocky mountain, you can also use sand, but add some farmyard manure and mix well.
If it is planted in a large area, it needs to be started. The row height is 20 cm, the row spacing is 80- 100 cm, and the plant spacing is 25-30 cm. When the plant height is 20 cm, a small amount of compound fertilizer water or light manure water can be applied.
When transplanting, dig with small bamboo pieces to let the seedlings take some soil. After planting, root water should be poured in time to ensure its survival rate.
