If they are still small you may be able to thin the rows by digging up some of the plants and replant them where ever you have room. Otherwise use a pair of pruners to cut some of the okra plants down at ground level... I know it's a tough task to cull healthy seedlings but it really needs to be done in order to give the plants the room they need to mature. Hi Karianne, you can just thin the okra plants.

I have about a 25ft row that I planted okra in on June 22nd, but I didn't know they had to be planted so far apart. When I planted them I just dropped the seeds in the soil and they are anywhere between 0-2 inchs. apart. What do I need to do because I don't want to loose my okra! I need help!
