A chap I work with has just come back from India and has brought me some seeds back.
I've just under over 470 okra seeds - given the year, and the month now I'm going to save them to grow next year.. however, thought it might be a fun idea to have a grow along thread? Sort of like PW's banana shallot seed adventure, if you're old enough to remember that (I was a bit of a lurker back then, must admit).
Given the price of them from seed suppliers, even if you just wanted to try them and not take part then I'll happily send you some (SAE - and you must be an active forum member... I'll be offering these as per the seed swap rules).
I believe from reading a few threads that they're a bit of a challenge to grow. I'm not sure what variety they are, as they were bought loose.
If you'd like to take part in it, reply below - starting this thread now, as no doubt I'll forget in a few months time
Any that are left over, I'll put in the VSP.

I've tried before but never managed to crop any - I'm sure there's time to sow them this year so what ya waiting for
