This study investigated the effects of different concentrations of spent calcium carbide waste on the growth of okra plants. Soil was contaminated with 0g, 100g, 200g, and 300g of spent carbide and okra seeds were planted. The results showed that okra plants grown in soil with 100g of spent carbide performed better in terms of plant height, number of leaves, and leaf area compared to other treatments and the control, though growth decreased with concentrations above 100g. Specifically, at 8 weeks after planting the 100g treatment had the highest mean plant height and number of leaves, though dry weights did not differ significantly. This indicates that okra can tolerate low concentrations of spent carbide waste but growth is
