Okra is a light-loving plant, mostly growing in the sun.Planting this plant generally choose a place with sufficient light, and pay attention to the planting density, too dense will affect the light transmission, which is not conducive to the growth of the plant.If the environment is too dark, it can not carry out photosynthesis, it is difficult to accumulate nutrients, but also affect the flowering of plants, thereby reducing its yield.
Okra has a high requirement for light, and it should be exposed to long light every day.If you plant in the ground, you usually plant in the sunny place, and the light is easy to meet.If it is planted in the greenhouse, it needs to be supplemented with light.If you grow it at home, you should put it on the balcony and let it bask in the sun more.If the light time is not enough, it will not only grow poorly, but also reduce production.
1. High temperature: Okra is suitable for growing in warm places, and is very resistant to high temperature, but it is more afraid of cold, so the temperature should be high rather than low.When the temperature is above 15 C, the seeds can germinate, and when the temperature reaches 25-30 C, the growth rate is faster.If the growth period is lower than 17 C, it will affect flowering and fruiting, resulting in yield reduction.
2. Control watering: Okra is not tolerant to waterlogging, so it must be well watered. If there is too much water and too much humidity, the plant will easily suffer from damping-off and other diseases.In general, keep the soil moist, but not too damp.Fruiting period can not be too dry, water shortage will also affect the quality of fruit.In addition, drainage work should be done well in rainy season.
3. Suitable soil: Okra has a strong ability to adapt to the soil, but it grows faster in loose and fertile soil.Therefore, before planting, deep tillage can be carried out, and enough base fertilizer can be applied, which can also provide sufficient nutrients for plant growth.
