1. Flowering periodOkra blooms from May to September. As an annual herb, flowering time is often related to planting time, and it usually takes about 50-55 days from seedling emergence to flowering. It should be noted that each flower can only bloom for a few hours. It usually blooms in the morning and withers at noon. It can usually be harvested 3-4 days after the flowers wither. 2. Reasons for not blooming1. Insufficient light: Okra itself likes to grow in places with sufficient light. If the environment is too dark and the plant does not get enough light, it will be difficult to carry out photosynthesis and synthesize nutrients. It will also grow too tall, which is not conducive to flowering. Therefore, if you want it to bloom, you must provide it with long-term sunlight. And it is not afraid of strong light, so there is no need for shade in summer. 2. The temperature is too low: Okra is not resistant to low temperatures and has high requirements for temperature. If the temperature is lower than 17°C, the growth of the plant will slow down and flowering will also be affected. Usually during the growing season, the temperature should be controlled between 25-30℃ to ensure the healthy development of the plants. If the temperature is too low, it is necessary to keep warm, otherwise the buds will fall off and its yield will be reduced. 3. Too much water: Okra itself does not like water and does not have a great demand for water, especially during the growth period. Proper water control can promote flowering. If there is an adequate water supply, the plant will continue to grow, which is not conducive to flowering. You can extend the watering interval and wait until the soil is dry before watering again. Also pay attention to ventilation and reduce the humidity of the environment. 4. Lack of nutrients: Okra is not easy to bloom if it grows in barren areas. Generally, sufficient base fertilizer should be applied during planting, and topdressing should be applied during its growth period, so that the plant can have enough nutrients for growth and development. |
