Okra – Trimming
Q: When okra gets six feet tall, what can be done to keep it from getting too tall to easily pick without reducing the daily harvest?
A: You can’t do anything to reduce height that won’t also reduce flowers. I guess you’ll have to bring a step stool or a bucket to stand on when you harvest your pods.
