Okra seedling time and technology are as follows:

1, seedling time: okra planting time is generally early April to late August, north and south of more than April to June sowing, July to October harvest. North China is generally sown in mid to late April to May. Northern cold areas commonly used solarium, plastic greenhouse concentrated seedlings, to be early spring after the late frost, and then planted in the field.

2, seedling technology: okra sowing seedlings before the first seed soaking germination, usually soak the seeds in warm water at 50 ℃, wait until the warm water becomes cool, fish out the seeds to clean several times. Then the seeds to soak in warm water for 2-3 days, during which the water is often changed to ensure that the temperature is 25-30 ℃. Wait until the okra seeds white, dig a 2-3cm deep pit in the soil, sow the seeds in the pit, put 3 seeds in each hole pit, cover the soil and water until the seeds germinate and emerge from the soil, and then inter-seedling seedlings can be set.

Okra planting maintenance

Prefer warm, moist and sunny. Do not tolerate frost, afraid of water and wind, slightly drought-resistant. Growing temperature 20 ~ 30 ℃, winter temperature is not less than 5 ℃. Ground planting choose fertile, loose and well-drained loam, potting with fertile garden soil, leafy soil, coarse sand mixture. Seedling plant height of 10 centimeters when transplanted; after transplanting the seedlings pay attention to cultivate the soil, to prevent plant collapse.

Branching is poor, seedlings do not need to pick heart. Keep the soil moist during the growing period, fertilizer once a month; bud formation, an additional application of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. In summer, pay attention to drainage, prevention and control of aphids, tortoise and rust damage. Sowing seeds in spring and fall, dividing plants in early spring or early summer, and using shoot cuttings in early summer.
