Don't know, I've never grown okra. It works with most seeds. I did do one test many years ago comparing average germination in soil vs. paper towels vs. other substances using rose seeds. Some varieties of rose seeds weren't affected by soil vs paper towel and some germinated better in soil (all were in baggies so getting seedlings out was much more difficult in the soil.)
