First I am no gardener. I plant very few things mostly a few peppers, few tomatoes mainly for salsa. But we eat a lot of Okra so I plant around a 125 okra plants my plants usually get around 8 to 10 tall and the seed I use are seeds I have saved from my okra for the last few years. This year they are not doing to well I got some very pretty, healthy looking plants that are 3' tall with big dark green leaves but no okra and not even any blooms. The okra that I let go to seed to save I always try to get off of the plants that do the best, but this year its not looking to good, I was a little late getting them planted but still I got plants that look good but no okra and the plants that don't look as good is starting to produce some okra.
