I was wondering if someone could help me figure out what is wrong with my okra plants. I have recently been receiving very heavy rainfall and my okra plants leaves are not responding that well. Although I am getting new leaves, the older ones are starting to have yellow spots and purple fringes at the edge. Also, some previously fine looking leaves (without spots or purple fringes) just curl up and fall off. I am not sure if this is all related to the recent spate of heavy rain or they are a combination of issues. I have a mild case of aphids but I do not think they are the problem. Any ideas? Thanks
