too early for okra...they like HOT weather...did u soak'm...???...tuff/hard seeds I know they like it hot. Down here south of I-10, we will be in the 90* range soon enough. I did soak them overnight prior to potting them. I'm just impatient and want to have okra as early as possible.
Team wolfs I had to perform. It took a minute to get it all in my mouth and another five to swallow it all.

I typically always soak mine in watered down Garrett Juice from 8-24 hours. This year I got in a rush and just sowed them direct in the dirt cups and mostly no issues. Everything has sprouted 100% except the hot peppers.
Green tea is a first for me hearing it used a soak. But I've seen people soak them in hydrogen Peroxide for 10 minutes to kill of any pathogens, people just soaking in water, etc. Lots of different formulas/methods. I Lied!
I'd Tack That!!

i go with 8 considering 6 inches of compost...15 x 30 x.5 = 225 / 27 cu ft per yard = 8

Online compost calculators show mixing in 4" of compost would be 5 yards for 450sq feet to mix with native soil. 6" would be best.
Personally to that I would add
40lbs lava sand 40lbs Dry Molasses 40lbs of Greensand 40lbs of Horticulture corn meal 40lbs of Expanded Shale Some Azomite would be a real nice added bonus.
Those are +/- depending on what size bag you can find local. All pretty cheap. And again this is just my method on amendments, but it will give you some pretty kick a** soil imo.

Maybe. They should have the corn meal and molasses. If it's an awesome feed store like Boyce Feed in Hachie they would pretty much have all of it. You'll have to make some calls. Good Natured packages most of what I listed even though most of it is not listed on their site. Give them a call and they will tell you who your local dealer is. www.goodnaturedforall.comGarden Variety shows pretty much all their packages. https://www.gardenvarietyorganics.com
