1、 How many years can you live

Okra is an annual plant. Its life span is less than one year. Moreover, the plant is very afraid of cold. If it is lower than 17 ℃, it will slow down its growth, and sustained low temperature may frostbite it. Generally, it takes 50-55 days from sowing to flowering, and about 120 days from flowering to harvest. Therefore, the harvest is basically completed in about half a year

2、 Planting method

1. Prepare pot soil: before planting okra, you need to prepare flower pots and pot soil. The flowerpot is generally made of pottery. It has good air permeability and moderate size. Basin soil is mostly soft sandy loam. If not, it can also be prepared by itself. It can be mixed with garden soil and coarse sand. The proportion of sand should not be too large. In order to make it grow rapidly, an appropriate amount of base fertilizer can be added

2. Seed soaking and germination: in order to make okra grow better, seed soaking and germination can be carried out first. Soak the seed in water, take it out after 12 hours, wrap it with wet cloth, and put it in the environment with the temperature of 25-30 ℃, so that it can sprout soon. When the germination rate exceeds 60%, it can be sown

3. Sowing: lay some broken tiles on the bottom of the flowerpot, or use large particle matrix to increase its drainage. After that, it can be filled, generally up to about 80%. Dig a small pit in the middle of the basin soil and plant seeds into it. You can grow several seeds and cover a layer of 2cm thick soil

4. Subsequent maintenance: after sowing, appropriate amount of water shall be poured to keep the soil moist. When the seedlings grow, they should be interspersed according to the growth situation, remove the weak seedlings and retain the strong plants. During its growth period, it should be fertilized regularly to provide nutrients, and ensure that it can receive sufficient light
