HI! Im a first timer, growing on my kitchen counter (for now). My okra has what looks to be tiny water drop on the underside of their leaves. But.. they arent water droplets, its hard tiny clear balls is this normal? I did put my veggies out on a picnic table for the afternoon a couple times, please tell me they arent bug eggs!
Also do the seed leaves get droopy once the actual leaves start growing? Mine are starting to look a bit sad.
I included a couple pictures of the okra, but not of the clear ball issue. It was impossible to take a picture of them bc they are too small.
Question about whats on my okra and another about leaves.
Nevermind! I found a picture when i googled burgundy okra seedlings of exactly what i was talking about (water looking balls) and I think its normal! YAY! Although still curious about the seedling leaves.
I don't much about okra but yes the "seed leaves"should fall off but don't worry if they don't
Okay, Thank you!
I see your from liberty hill, we just moved back to cali from Burnet! Nice to see a fimiliar city on DG!
You are not going to believe this but I'm from the San Fernando Valley. We used to drive through Victorville to get to Big Bear.
How funny is that!! When we lived in tx we met alot of people from cali. Im probably one of the random that moved back haha. Do you visit cali often?
Sorry for the lag I've been really busy. Ive lived here for almost 20 yrs. All my family lives in Cal. so I go back 2-3 times a year. I love going back to visit, but I love living in the country so I don't think I could go back for good.
No biggie haha. We LOVE burnet too. And hate that we had to move, had another baby and needed to be near family. But we do plan on buying a place out there once our new house is paid off. Hope all is well in the great state :)
It is hot and really windy, kind of like Victorville.
Not to worry, it's normal for Okra, a physiological thing, can't find my resource for the phenomenon just now.
