Heavy Hitter is my Winner
"I like that it grew honestly. Even with the cooler temps this spring lasting until after Easter in my zone 8. It did take 7 days to germinate the ones I did in April as direct sow, but I didn't soak them either and the temp was still working itself out. 😂 The leaves are gorgeous taste delicious. Haven't picked a pod yet since they just started flowering but soon. I left 2 pics just so u can see that they are in containers and are doing beautifully. They are actually out performing in growth compared to the spineless clemson I planted last year , those seeds not from this site. Right now in the container she is 25 inches tall in an 18 inch pot. So from May 2 seedling sprouted until July 6th she is within her time to flower. I loved that. While I have 2 different size containers and some I just planted on the 6th in ground . I will have a larger data set to better tell u which performed better. But TBH it's doing so well in the containers if u just wanted to eat the leaves like collards it would be well worth it just for that but seeing how there are multiple pods growing each day I go out and smile. The blooms are beautiful the pods are plenty and the leaves are deliciously green. So heavy hitter is my winner out of all 3 varieties I have tried of okra in my area."
