If you do I trust you have a large heated greenhouse with growing lights,

cannot imagine anywhere in the UK where Okra would crop successfully,
Channel Isles perhaps but even there, doubtful.


Remind me to report back come autumn. I've got 10 okra plants on the go
in
the greenhouse atm, with the plan to transplant some to the allotment.
(I've never even eaten okra, let alone grown it, so it's all a bit of an
experiment atm!)


If our experience is anything to go by it will simply suck and do nothing
out on the plot, and we are in a warm part of the Country.
