lisaann, Instead of pulling the root out of the soil, consider gianna's suggestion and cut the plant at soil level and leave the root in the ground.

I always put okra in the worst, hardest, unimproved, good-ol-Georgia red clay area, 'cause it thrives there. Okra is funny that way. It's a bear to uproot, so when it's done I just machete it at soil level (like chopping a small tree) and let the roots break down as they will.

I have two pods I'm saving seeds from, on my best Little Lucy plant - largest trunk, and the most branches off the main trunk. I'm only guessing that it produced the most, since I didn't count. I tried bagging them, but they wouldn't open, so I waited until two opened, when there were no blossoms on Emerald open, and I tagged them. One is over 10" long, the other 6", so far.

I just got all of the seeds from those two pods - 101 total.
