Highlights :

- Soil requirements: Clemson Spineless Okra seeds prefer well-drained, sandy loam soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 6.8. The soil should be rich in organic matter to support healthy growth.
- Sunlight needs: These seeds require full sun exposure, which means they need at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight per day.
- Watering requirements: Okra plants need consistent moisture, especially during the flowering and pod development stages. Water the plants deeply once a week, ensuring the soil remains moist but not waterlogged.
- Planting season: The best time to plant Clemson Spineless Okra seeds is in the spring, after the last frost has passed and the soil temperature has warmed to at least 65°F (18°C).
- Depth and spacing: Plant the seeds about 1/2 to 1 inch deep and space them 12 to 18 inches apart in rows that are 3 feet apart to allow for adequate air circulation and growth.
- Germination time: The seeds typically germinate within 7 to 14 days under optimal conditions.
- Maturity time: Clemson Spineless Okra plants reach maturity in approximately 50 to 60 days after planting.
- Harvesting time: The best time to harvest okra pods is when they are 3 to 4 inches long, which is usually in the early morning when the pods are most tender.
- Harvesting tips: Use a sharp knife or pruning shears to cut the pods from the plant. Wear gloves and long sleeves to protect your skin from the tiny spines on the plant. Store the harvested okra in a cool, dry place or refrigerate them to maintain freshness.
