Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Gardeners report - 2011
Okra has failed here. The first three I planted out died of cold/wind. That left me with two in small pots in a greenhouse. A few weeks later I moved one of those to a big pot and put it outside in a more sheltered place but it didn't appreciate the conditions either... I've still got the other one but I'm sure it would die outside and I haven't got the space to put it in something bigger and keep it under glass. I guess we'll get a couple of pods and that will be it.

I'd never tried growing before but I will try again next year but I think I will have to bodge up some form of "greenhouse" (probably bits of wood and polythene sheet) for it.
