Congratulations.

Anyone know if you can grow seeds fresh out of Okra pods?


Try it and see!


It's scarcely worth the bother, actually. Okra sold as a vegetable
is very unripe.

All of mine succumbed to fungus/whatever during the cold spell that
followed their germination. I lost a lot of subtropicals, and most
of the others are only now beginning to recover - some probably
won't.
