Ladies Finger Okra seeds

Test your soil with a kit from the garden center to determine your garden bed's pH level. If it is higher than 6.8, use sulfur or peat moss to lower it to the slightly acidic level okra prefers. If it is lower than 6.0, use limestone to raise the pH level so that it is not overly acidic. Work a 3-inch layer of compost into the top 6 to 8 inches of soil to add fertility and improve drainage.Sow lady's finger seeds in early summer, at least four weeks after all danger of frost has passed. Night temperatures should not fall below 60 degrees Fahrenheit. Plant them at a depth of 0.5 inch, at a spacing of 6 inches apart within rows. Rows should be at least 24 inches apart. Water the planting area lightly.
