Okra is a perfect crop to grow if you live in a climate with very hot summers. Growing okra requires a lot of sunshine, so find a place in your garden that gets all day sun. Plant okra after all threats of frost have passed. Keep the plants well-watered throughout the summer months and use more if you are in a hot, arid region. Keep an eye out for common garden pests like aphids and stink bugs. Okra is a very prolific plant, yielding many abundant hravests. Use okra in gumbo or middle-Eastern inspired dishes; or enjoy it roasted, satueed, or fried.

COMMON PESTS: Aphids, Corn earworms, Stinkbugs

SUSCEPTIBLE TO: Fusarium Wilt
