Tips and Tricks for Transplanting Okra in Short Season Zone 5 and Zone 6

Transplanting okra is a little tricky due to its tap root and hot climate preferences, but it’s entirely doable with enough care. Mainly it’s just planning ahead of time and being smart about it. I highly recommend having pots or containers with detachable bottoms for transplanting, it makes the process so much easier. In colder growing zones, giving the okra a head start in seedling pots is extremely valuable, since the hot growing season required for okra to produce its seed pods is so short in Zone 6 and Zone 5, and the plants can’t tolerate anything under 65 degrees F (18 degrees C). It’s also beneficial for those in hotter climates, as you’ll get your harvest sooner in the year and potentially for a longer period of time. Either way, you’ll get a lot more okra by starting it earlier than direct sowing and then transplanting it later.
