Where did you find that definition of creepitist?.... LOL.
I was given some African okra seeds by an African friend, and I know nothing about growing okra because I can't eat it.
Any hints would be wonderful! I'm in the midwest, in zone 4.
TIA.

.It needs a long period of hot weather. I love okra but up here in Wisconsin, I've never had much luck.
Now when I lived in Arkansas and Texas, I used to eat a lot of it. Coat it with flour, corn meal, salt, and pepper, and fry it up in a skillet with lard.

I think my friend probably has Ethiopian recipes for cooking it. He's got a lot of Ethiopian friends who probably invite him to dinner a lot, who will cook it for him.
I don't eat it because it's really high in oxalic acid. Off my diet.
Our growing season can be pretty hot, but not very long, and this is probably a very late start. We've had a bizarre amount of rain this spring. Just been a weird year, but I'm going to try. My friend's face lit right up when I told him I was going to try planting it.

.I miss having okra, but they do have it at Walmart sometimes. It goes great in gumbo and other Cajun dishes.
It has been a weird year. Here it is the middle of June and I haven't even tilled the garden spot. It's been too cool and too wet.
I believe so. I prefer to refer to Crepitus as 'jangebones.'.
It was just a word that was in my mind when I first joined. I knew it was a medical term, of some sort. It is now, in the form in which I use it, obsolete, mostly. It also means a cracking noise that comes from a joint. It's hard to find the old definition, and I honestly can't tell you where I found it. I use duckduckgo to search.

I wonder if it comes from the same root as the word "decrepit".

I'd never purposely grow nasty-ass Okra.

Pickles are nice if you cut the pods early in the morning when they are under 3 inches.
Damn, man. If some Virginian had said that in 1860, the other 10 Confederate states would have revoked their Confederate Card.
Thank you for not saying "It was Arabs who invented Okra..."
Okra came from Africa so the Arabs know about okra.
A traditional Arabic okra stew called bamee is made with browned okra, tomatoes, cilantro or coriander, and meat. The dish can be served with plain or Arabic rice.
No tips but you are white and have an African friend? Don't tell IM2.
