I always think about cotton when I see Okra plants. Did you defoliate the cotton for machine picking and if did how was the Okra spared?

Yes, we defoliated the cotton. My husband is pretty good at not drifting chemicals with his spray rig. We had a field of cotton in another parish that we had defoliated via airplane. All of the trees around the field lost their leaves too. They aren’t dead, just def’d.
