Twice a day is about right around here during high season. When I do grow okra, I try to go out ASAP after a heavy rain to get the good ones --literally in hours they can go from yum to yuck. I'm not growing any this year because of space issues.
Oh, and the fire ants. I got tired of fighting the fire ants. They LOVE okra. Neem oil doesn't faze them, and I am leery of using too much Amdro (bait) in the beds.
