Hey Worth that sounds like a heck of bush with great yeilds. I was talking to a farmer here who said he grows a bush type plant gets about 5 to 6 feet tall and loads itself with okra He's gets to itchy picking it so he doesn't grow many plants LOL I think he said he has someone else pick it for him - didn't know orka grow in bushes.

Thanks I can get the horse manure here. LOL I don't think I would cut yours back if you did it might give a new meaning to the Jack and the Beanstalk tale
BTW have you grown Alabama Red Okra? Some of the old timers remember it but doesn't seem to be grown in Alabama any more.
