We normally don't have enough heat to grow Okra, Yard Long Bean or Bitter
Melon here except in greenhouses so they should do very well where you are.
The bean & melon need LOTS of room so I hope you have some trellises for
them.
Chinese Broccoli and Choy Sum are growing right now and they prefer cooler
temperatures. You may want to delay growing them until your cool season or
else find some shade for them.

Hi,
I have had requests in trade for Asian veg like Bitter Melon, Yard Long
Bean, Chy Sum, Okra, Eggplant, Chinese Broccoli etc. Am wondering if any of
you guys have had success with these or probs.Just want to know if they are
suitable for cultivation there.Thanks for the info on cucumbers-have decided
to put the Chinese cuke in the ground and the other in containers.
