One article sez top Okra at 6' back to 4'. Another sez top at 18" and pinch tips(???). I would like a bushy plant with several heads. Advice from anyone who has been there, done that, would be greatly appreciated.

I've never topped okra, so no help to you. Each limb will have a fruit, so as the plant gets taller the fruit is higher up. But the lower limbs do put on fruit too, so you have to look close, or you will miss some of those.

And judging from my sprouts, I did plant okra the other day. So much for my memory.

I still have my house guests. I've stayed at the camp as much as possible this week, but when at home, I've been in the garden.

What I think is okra sprouts. {I really need to take better garden notes} Will have to cull the weak ones.

On the peas, the replants will be bigger than the originals any day now. I did a little hoeing a couple days ago. It was too wet to do much good, but I cleaned them all up a little more this morning. {after this picture was snapped}

I saw this when I looked them up before. {the copy and paste thing}

Plant peanuts after the danger of frost is past. Peanuts require a soil temperature of 65 F for germination. Sow peanut seeds 1 to 1 1/2 inches deep and 6 to 8 inches apart.
