Seed Saving

Allow selected pods to mature completely on the plants until dry and brown. Collect the dried pods, remove the seeds, and let them dry fully before storing in a labeled container in a cool, dry place. Because this mix contains multiple okra varieties, cross-pollination may produce variations in future generations, and saved seeds may not grow true to the original varieties.

Your Seed Packet Includes

One packet containing 40 Rainbow Mix Okra seeds harvested from Farmacy-grown plants in Alabama, with planting and growing instructions.

Seeds are living agricultural products, and germination can vary based on temperature, moisture, planting depth, storage, and growing conditions. Germination rates listed are based on Farmacy testing when available and are not a guarantee of individual growing results.
