I cant be a smart ----- with out some help
That's where I come-in! LOL Just made a big pot of gumbo with some of the okra you said would never survive when I planted it July 1. So there! Wish you lived closer - I'd bring you some okra, some gumbo and borrow one of those bits - and I'd be far enough away from Woodville to have a couple brews with you. (As a Texan, you know what I mean LOL)

PS - I have to admit that keeping those 30 okra plants alive during the "August from Hell" was more than a full time job. All I did was stand out there with a garden hose from the house well - 3-4 times a day! And they were still barely surviving. After the worst was over in Sept, they took-off though. I had to have SOMETHING growing! It was depressing enough! Dear Lord, please don't let it be like that next year!!! My lake is almost totally dry - the catfish have ticks and the bass died long ago.! God Bless you and yours, Worth.
