Thinking of trying to grow okra has anyone had any luck  growing them,  or would I be wasting my time.

I have struggled to get a decent crop tbh but a couple of members are persevering this year.

I'm going to wait and see how they get on and learn from them if they are successful  :

Thanks, Sunshineband my daughter loves okra so ill probably try to grow it just for this year, who knows we may get a hot summer and be successful.

we going to give them a go this year too.

However, I must admit to not reading the description properly, I must of missed the bit about growing the in the greenhouse 

Oh well, its a steep learning curving this vege growing1

The challenge has begun.
 I've  Received 8 Okra Seeds today and I have sown them in individual pots, I'll keep them indoors until they have germinated and big enough to go in the greenhouse.
