What is happening to my lady finger plant?
Is it because that 2 days ago I watered them at 10:45am, which is a bad idea?
What is the solution?

What is the situation of the Okra plant right now?? i am guessing here that you have poured very hot water (as these days in normal taps in the noon ) to your plant and it has literally boiled its roots !! is this correct ?

Get rid of it and grow something more useful like podina, or even lemon tea. A persian saying goes like "Gham na daari boz bakhar"= jiss ko koi gham na ho woh bakri paal lay . In the same way, you are worried about a single bhindi plant which is of no use in this state!

The problem I am facing of bhindi plant is not the problem of one plant it is the problem of 3 other bhindi plant as well.
